Exhibit in Hume
Hume City Council is excited to invite artists and community groups to apply for the 2025 Hume Galleries Annual Exhibition Program. This is a chance for artists of all skill levels to share their artwork in our local galleries for up to a 12-week period.
About the program
The Hume Galleries Annual Exhibition Program offers opportunities for first-time exhibitors, emerging hobbyists and professional artists and community members to showcase their work in the community. Our goal is to create gallery spaces where all voices in our community can be seen and heard.
The program is selected through a competitive Expression of Interest (EOI) process, which invites a range of projects, from art exhibitions, contemporary live media, workshops and one-off events like performances. We encourage innovative projects presented across a range of media.
The annual gallery program is guided by Hume’s Creative Community Strategy with the aim to build community connections, create opportunities, foster wellbeing and belonging through creative expression.
We welcome participation from under-represented groups to apply including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, LGBTQIA+, Young People, Disability and Culturally Diverse Communities.

The selection criteria for applications includes:
- Artistic Merit: This category assesses the visual and aesthetic qualities of the applicant’s artwork. It considers the visual language used: composition, form, colour, and any other qualities important to the work. It considers how these qualities express the conceptual ideas behind the artwork.
- Technical Merit: This category addresses the applicant’s technical skills in their chosen medium. The proposal will be evaluated on how well the applicant demonstrates their abilities with their medium and materials, including attention to detail and their ability to fulfil the proposed exhibition.
- Consideration of the Installation: This category assesses the way the applicant has thought through the way their artwork will be installed in their preferred gallery venue: how it will be displayed and consideration of the site.
- Relevance to the Hume Community and Social Justice: This category considers the applicants connection to the city of Hume and how their work connects to the priorities of the Hume Social Justice Charter.
The program will prioritise first time exhibitors.
