Exhibition Opportunities

Take Over

Every year Shieldfield Art Works runs Take Over, a series of open call opportunities for three artists or groups of artists to put on their own exhibitions in the SAW gallery with support and guidance from SAW staff.

The call out for Take Over 2026 is now OPEN!

You can download our application pack here.

As part of our Take Over call out SAW will be hosting a session offering advice on how to put together a proposal. This session is open to anyone but will be particularly helpful for those who are early in developing their practice or are seeking guidance on how to put together a successful art exhibition.

How to write a proposal will take place on Monday 1st December, 2pm at SAW.

Other Opportunities

SAW will occasionally have other call outs and opportunities associated with our various projects. There are currently no other live opportunities.
