The Northern Rivers Community Gallery (NRCG) welcomes exhibition proposals from artists, designers, curators, community and cultural groups in all art forms that display innovative ideas and approaches to contemporary arts practice. We value socially engaged, research-based, and experimental projects that will captivate and challenge our audiences.⁠ We strongly encourage applications from First Nations artists, artists from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, Deaf and Disabled artists and LGBTQIA+ artists.⁠ 

The Northern Rivers Community Gallery (NRCG) is housed in a heritage building, built in 1927 as the original Ballina Municipal Council Chambers. Our facility features four professional exhibition spaces with the ability to present a diverse exhibition program. NRCG works with both emerging and established artists to support professional development opportunities.

Applications are accepted only during an exhibition call out period. Applications must be received by the submission deadline to be considered. As of 1 July 2023, there will be no exhibitor fees for exhibitions with NRCG, however, the gallery retains a 40% commission on sold work.
