About

Shepparton Art Museum in regional Victoria programmes its community gallery through two annual opportunities. SAM Selects offers an exhibition slot between June and September 2027 for an existing body of work by artists, curators, creative practitioners or community groups who live, work or study in Greater Shepparton and the Goulburn Valley, or whose work was made in the region (for example during a residency). SAM Spotlight offers a solo exhibition in March–June 2028 to an emerging artist from the Goulburn Valley, who develops a new body of work with the museum.

Applicants must be 20 or older. There is no application fee; one application per opportunity via the online form.

Applications opened 1 October 2026 and close 7 December 2026, with outcomes notified in early 2027.
