Bothkinds Project Space -
Artist Call 2025 - 2026 Programming Season

Bothkinds Project Space is inviting submissions for exhibition and installation proposals for the the remainder of our 2025, and 2026 programming.


1. Call for Entry:
Bothkinds Project Space is seeking local artists and artist groups to submit proposals for installations at our Yes Gallery location, at 602 E. Hastings Street. We are looking for work that sparks public curiosity and will engage passersby with the gallery.

The Artist Call is open and does not have a specific theme. However, in keeping with our mandate, Bothkinds Project Space is excited to receive proposals with thematic roots related to interdisciplinary creative culture, cultural identity, social justice, and our relationship within the Strathcona and Downtown East Side neighbourhoods.

2. Scope of Project:
We welcome 2D, 3D, Audio / Visual, and performative installations. Artists can apply individually or as a collective. We also welcome curated installations.

3. Eligibility:
This call for proposals is open to all Vancouver-based artists. Bothkinds Project Space particularly welcomes submissions from students, emerging and early-career artists, arts groups, and those who identify as members of equity, diversity and inclusivity seeking groups. Bothkinds Project Space will place more weight on the strength of your submission rather than your existing CV.

4. Criteria:
Proposals will be assessed by the Bothkinds Projects Board, based on visual impact, regional context, mandate alignment, aesthetic merits, and feasibility.

5. Submission Requirements:

Please submit your Proposal as a single PDF.
The PDF file must be titled: ‘FirstNameLastName-Bothkinds2024-Proposal’.

Proposals must include:

  • Your artistic CV, artist bio, full name, and contact information.

  • A description of and artist statement for the proposed installation

  • Dimensions of work if applicable, and mediums used.

  • 5-10 images, or links to video to demonstrate your proposed installation


We regret that proposals that do not follow these directions will not be considered.

6. How to Apply:
Please submit your proposal via email to: bothkindsV6A@gmail.com

Please use the subject line:
‘Bothkinds 2024 Proposal - FirstName LastName’

Due to the volume of submissions, only successful applicants will be notified.

Thank you for your interest.
