    Main Gallery exhibitions may originate from unsolicited proposals or through guest curators. Alternatively artists may be contacted to address a specific area of interest or a board member may propose a particular exhibition to add direction and focus to the overall program.

    Project Room is situated as a "curatorial laboratory". This program is designed to promote the development of creative new models of critical expression which probe issues relevant to current artistic practices.

    Windows encourages artists to create site-specific works for this street level venue. Through this series the centre will be addressing notions of site-specific tendencies as well as promoting contemporary issues to a broader viewing public.
