Propeller Art Gallery, Toronto

Submission Details & Form

Propeller Art Gallery invites artists to submit small artworks for Small Pleasures, an exhibit of small-scale pieces that make a big statement.

On display from March 5 to March 23, 2025, this non-juried exhibition will showcase a dynamic collection of small works that leave a lasting impression, proving that bigger isn’t always better.

We’re looking for small art that maximizes impact within minimal dimensions and shows that scale is not a limitation. Whether sculpture, photography, printmaking, drawing, painting, textile, or mixed media, we want works that command attention and stir emotion. You can submit up to three pieces, each no larger than 16 inches in any dimension.

We encourage artists to step beyond the assumed limitations of working small while engaging with the unique dialogue and processes that small art can offer.

Small Pleasures celebrates how artists innovate to create powerful works within smaller dimensions, art that invites close examination, creating an intimate connection between the viewer and the artwork. Whether through intricate textures, vibrant colours, or compelling forms, Small Pleasures proves that even the tiniest format can leave a lasting impression.

About the Gallery

Propeller Art Gallery is an artist-run co-operative and exhibition space in Toronto’s Queen West Art + Design District that supports innovative, sustainable programming.

Propeller was established in August 1996 by a small group of recent graduates from the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD). Their mission was to create an affordable community art gallery for emerging Canadian artists, offering a professional exhibition venue and necessary support in career building.

Propeller continues to uphold this today, supporting artists from emerging to established, through a dynamic approach to arts programming, a venue to exhibit art, and education through member-assisted learning and collaboration.
