We launched Garage in late 2022 and have hosted a variety of exhibitions since then, including hung work, sculpture and installations including audio and video. Garage runs on a not-for-profit basis and we don’t charge for the use of the space (other than a nominal. negotiable charge of £50 to cover costs). We’re now planning a series of group shows for 2024.

We’re looking for curators or curator-artists for a group show as part of our 2024 offer - we’re planning to host several shows between March and December (dates flexible) – and also into 2025.

If you support our ethos - to provide an opportunity for artists who are just starting out (irrespective of age), haven't had a London show before and are producing socially-conscious art - let us know how you'd go about putting together an exhibition.  We’re looking for groups of at least three artists.

Previous curators have worked creatively to make the most of the space, which is relatively small: the gallery area itself is 7m x 2.5m with about 10m of wall hanging space; there are two freestanding boards (around 2m x 2m) which provide extra space/partitions.  We’d like to encourage experimentation and will give curators free rein to use the space creatively to suit the work.  You’re welcome to come and visit the space and discuss options and ideas. 

We work on a primarily invitation-only basis for visitors, but we’ve found that this generates a good footfall for exhibitions 3 – 4 days in length, including a weekend and an evening private view. All our shows have been well-attended and received, and we work with curators to maximise publicity using our lists, social media and our website as well as their own channels.
