The Chase Gallery is open whenever City Hall is open to the public. 

Two dimensional, sculptural, installation, video, audio, traditional, and experimental artworks are encouraged. Individual artists, artists teams, or proposals for curated themes are eligible. Although the Chase Gallery primarily focuses on curating group exhibits, exceptionally strong work may be considered for a solo exhibition. If work is accepted for exhibition, wall pieces must be hanging ready, and artists are responsible for providing all necessary sound and projection equipment for video, new media, and sound installations and artworks. As you apply, keep in mind there are limitations on hanging artwork from the ceiling and open-audio (headphones acceptable). 

Applicants may not submit AI-generated images, AI-prompted artwork, AI-assisted compositions, or artwork that incorporates AI-generated visual elements, backgrounds, textures, figures, references, or source material. All digital works will go through an AI Image Detector.

The Chase Gallery occasionally works with guest curators to install proposed group exhibits. Guest curators interested in proposing a group show with set artwork may submit one application featuring a sample of work from each artist and additional links and information in the "Exhibit Proposal" section of the application. Artists groups interested in submitting work for a group curated show are encouraged to apply as individuals and note in the "Exhibit Proposal" section the other artists to be considered in their group, along with any information about themes or other connections to be considered by the gallery committee. Email eedwards@spookanecity.org with questions.
