In partnership with the building’s management Knight Frank, the 24-hour window gallery at Market Square is an initiative from the City of Greater Geelong, aimed at breaking down barriers to art by attracting viewers in a high traffic area who might not typically visit traditional galleries.

The new gallery celebrates creativity in the heart of our City as a UNESCO City of Design and supports a 30-year, community-led vision for the City of Greater Geelong to be internationally recognised as a clever and creative city-region. The continuously evolving and revolving exhibition is open for artwork application from emerging and established Greater Geelong based artists and designers, or those who have strong ties to the Geelong region.

Applications are welcome across all mediums of visual arts and design including First Nations art, painting, sculpture, film, animation, photography, fashion, lighting design, furniture design and ceramics. It is free to exhibit, and selected artists will be paid a fee of $500 to show their work. Collectives and curators can apply for consecutive windows.

Further details for application can be found here and the displays can be seen on Yarra Street, between Malop and Little Malop Streets.
