About the Cultural Exchange Centre + Eight-Track Art Gallery

Art for everyone

Our organization has a long history of supporting provincial cultural activity through a wide range of programs.

The Cultural Exchange Centre enriches the cultural life of diverse Saskatchewan communities and provides accessible creative spaces for:

• the development of emerging and professional artists to produce, present and collaborate with communities through inclusive and diverse programming
• children and youth to create, present and express themselves though the arts; and
• artistic experiences to captivate, stimulate and resonate with audiences of all ages

The Eight-Track, located in Regina at the corner of 8th Ave. and the railroad tracks, is housed within the Club Venue of the Cultural Exchange. It is an artist-led gallery committed to nurturing emerging contemporary visual art and its artists. Curatorial decisions are framed by an artistic direction that supports presentation of work by artists, in a non-institutional space to encourage and support a wide range of artists’ projects. The Eight Track will focus on support of emerging artists and the dissemination of their work.

The Gallery will:

• Provide a space within where all levels of artists can engage in contemporary art.
• Involve young artists and audiences through innovative Gallery outreach and promotion.
• Present work by (emerging) artists from diverse communities.
• Collaborate with other artist-run centres and arts organizations as means to enhance available resources and impact for programs on the provincial, national and international level.

Submissions for consideration should include: data CD-Rs containing 20 high res jpeg images , C.V., artist's statement, and self-addressed stamped envelope (if return of submission is required).

Submission deadlines are ongoing.
