The Mill’s Exhibition Space program highlights the practice of art-making and aims to make process more available to audiences. Our focus is on multidisciplinary projects, and we welcome applications from artists, creatives, curators, makers, or projects that seek to explore multi-disciplinary practice and process. We have one exhibition opportunity available in late 2022 and several available for 2023 including during Fringe Festival and SALA Festival.
Exhibitions run for ~approx. 9 weeks (including bump in and bump out)
The Mill is a growing organisation, and as such we are endeavouring to pay an artist fee of $1000 per project as well as modest production & public program costs, however this funding is unconfirmed. Before applying, please consider whether this project is viable for you without confirmation of these fees. And keep your fingers crossed for us! We do not charge Gallery hire to artists in the Exhibition Space Program.
