Artist responsibilities
Unlike a commercial gallery, IAH does not have any paid staff.
All installation, promotional, attendant, administration, and management support services are provided by volunteers, many of whom work full or part-time, have family commitments, and are practicing artists themselves. Therefore, exhibiting artists are required to attend the gallery throughout their exhibition (or organise a proxy to attend in their place). Whenever possible, volunteers will attend to support the exhibiting artist (or proxy).
Please note, two people are required to attend the gallery at all times. If, for any reason, two people are not available to cover a shift, the gallery will not open for that shift.
Promotion and Publicity
Exhibiting artists are responsible for producing their own promotional materials, in printed and electronic formats, and providing them to IAH at least one month before the exhibition start date.
Exhibiting artists will promote their exhibition on their social media, among their contacts, colleagues, friends, and family, and in the local community.
IAH will promote the exhibition on the IAH website, IAH email newsletter, IAH social media pages (Instagram and Facebook), and request placement on City of Stirling website, and in other media as agreed with the artist.
Intake and information sessions
Intake for the IAH exhibition program occurs at the start and end of the year, when IAH holds information sessions which interested artists are strongly encouraged to attend so they can view the Bob Daniel Community Centre and the IAH Art Gallery and assess whether the space and the terms and conditions would work for them.
2025 Waitlist
Most of the exhibition timeslots have been filled for 2025; however, if you would like to be added to a waitlist for consideration in the event of a cancellation, please complete the online application form.
Application process
-
Read the information provided.
-
Complete the online IAH Art Gallery Exhibition Application Form, and upload supporting materials, i.e. concise CV, 3 images and image descriptions.
-
Applicants who complete all the submission requirements will be invited to meet with IAH Art Gallery stakeholders to discuss a potential exhibition in more depth and determine whether there is a good fit between the applicant's and IAH gallery exhibition program's objectives and availability.
-
At this stage, applicants will be provided more in-depth information about the gallery and IAH’s expectations.
-
If both parties agree to proceed, IAH will invoice the artist and provide an agreement to sign. Then further information about the preparation process will be provided to guide the artist.
Please note, the application process is competitive and participating in the process does not guarantee a place in the Gallery Exhibition Program. Priority is given to current financial members of IAH who regularly volunteer with the gallery or behind the scenes for IAH.
