MICRO Gallery Exhibition

A fraction of the size of Westobou Gallery, MICRO hosts curated exhibitions, installations and pop-ups by regional, local and student artists. Apply for a solo or group exhibition or installation to be displayed up to three weeks!

Meal Series

Are you a chef or artist that wants to participate in Westobou’s Meal Series? Each year, Westobou pairs artists and chefs to prepare and present meals for 30 people in interesting, non-traditional venues that employ creative, elevated and unique concepts with rich thematic ties.

WestoBOO! Bash

Each year, Westobou hosts a Halloween event at Westobou Gallery. We are looking for this year’s artist host responsible for developing the theme, interactive elements and hosting the Boo Bash meal before the big party. Be creative! Themes do not necessarily have to be directly related to Halloween or spooky in nature.

Other

We are open to supporting other projects such as public art and pop-ups if space is secured.
