Review Process
The curatorial staff and program planning committee review proposals on an ongoing basis. Due to the high volume of proposals we receive, we will mail a reply within three to six months of submission.

Our schedule is planned a minimum of two years in advance and emphasizes thematic exhibitions and work by established Northwest artists. Exhibitions are carefully balanced to offer a wide variety of programming; therefore, we are rarely able to incorporate unsolicited proposals.
