The Paul Mall Alley Display Project seeks to feature six new visual artist’s work throughout 2024/2025. The display units located at 642 Queen Street East, provide an opportunity for local and regional artists to have an ongoing public space to display and promote their artwork.
Artists are invited to submit one portfolio piece to be digitally reproduced and displayed along with the artist’s biography, contact, website, and social media details in the display units. Artists working in a broad range of 2 dimensional or shallow relief media, including painters, photographers, collage artists, mosaic and graffiti artists are encouraged to participate. Artists must be able to provide digital copies of their chosen artwork meeting the specifications listed in the
Call for Artists guidelines. All artworks will be reviewed, and selections will be made by a project selection group.

If an extended showing is possible, artists will receive an additional $50 for each additional month that the artwork is on display.
