From September 8 until October 18, 2026, at 11:59 PM PST, Capture is accepting proposals for its 2027 Selected Exhibitions Program for exhibitions presented in galleries and informal spaces during April 2027.
Capture’s vision is to connect Vancouver to the world through lens-based art and act as a platform to expand visual literacy. Through this platform, we strive to give voice to traditionally underrepresented communities, and to present compelling, urgent lens-based art.
Projects will be evaluated by a jury of arts professionals who will be looking to showcase lens-based exhibitions in the Selected Exhibitions Program that demonstrate artistic excellence across a diverse range of subject matter.
