CALL FOR CANDIDATES FOR OUR PROGRAMMING COMMITTEE

La Centrale is currently looking for new members for its programming committee!

Are you an artist, curator, writer, student, critic, theorist and/or activist involved in the visual arts and with an interest in feminist arts? Participate in the creation of our programming by joining our selection committees!

La Centrale galerie Powerhouse is an artist-run centre dedicated to the dissemination and development of multidisciplinary feminist practices. We are committed to supporting practices and artists who are not very visible in the dominant cultural institutions, and this at various stages of their careers. Our mandate focuses on feminisms that enter into dialogue with intersectionality and social justice. Our programming is built on the basis of non-hierarchy and consensus, by selection committees made up of active members of the centre.

• The programming committee has the mandate to select the centre's exhibition projects (exhibition in gallery space and winter+ summer window exhibition) and performance projects (performance residency and performance event).

The programming committee worked together to create programming linked to La Centrale's mandate. The members meet between two to three times a year to look at the applications and discuss the programming. The committee will be divided into sub-groups according to the proposed projects (e.g. for exhibition, window and performance projects).

Members are invited to apply by sending a short biography (100 words) as well as a letter of interest (150 words) to the following address: galerie@lacentrale.org. The biographies received before October 17, 2021, will be included in the presentation at the AGM, those who have not sent their applications before this date will be able to present themselves spontaneously. Candidates will be voted on at our next AGM, October, 26, 2021 which they must attend in order to present themselve. The mandat for a member is two years.

* Non-members of La Centrale who wish to get involved in the committees must become members. For more information, please visit our website: https://www.lacentrale.org/en/devenir-membre/ *
