As a cultural center, one of our missions is to promote art and cultural exchanges. Therefore, we search for contemporary, innovative,
challenging forms, and we encourage French, Francophile and Australian artists to exhibit on our walls.
What you need to be an exhibitor at the Alliance
Nothing! If you’re an artist and you think exhibiting on our walls would benefit you, contact events@afcanberra.com.au
or call us on 02 6257 6696. You will then present your work to the director. If it is approved by our gallery selection committee, we will
organise an exhibition together.
What we offer you
You install your artworks on our walls, we organise the opening and the promotion of the exhibition. You benefit from:
OUR LOCATION
We have two large and beautiful exhibition rooms, and their walls are waiting for your artworks! We are also ideally situated, close to the
city and O’Connor shops.
OUR NOTORIETY
The AFC is increasingly on the map of gallery hunters. We are regularly visited by art critics, and celebrated for the quality of the work
we exhibit. Every year, we grant the Alliance Française Exhibition Award to young artists from the ANU, through the Emerging Artists
Support Scheme (EASS). This has helped increase our positive image in the artistic milieu.
OUR COMMUNICATION TOOLS
We will promote the exhibition in our quarterly newsletter, in our monthly e-newsletter (more than 4000 subscribers), on our Facebook page
(more than 1000 likes), among our students (more than 500 per term and growing every term) and we will send press releases to various
websites, newspapers and radio stations. The exhibition openings we organise usually gathers around 100 people.
OUR NETWORK
Exhibitions of your works can be organised in other Alliances
Françaises. There are 100 Alliances in the Pacific region!
