GALLERY EXHIBITIONS

OAS Gallery Exhibitions

Oakville Art Society provides several outlets for members and students to display and sell their artwork, both in-house and in Oakville. Each year, we typically exhibit at Queen Elizabeth Park Community Centre and at one of the Oakville Galleries sites. Check this page for updates, as well as the Juried Show and Student Show pages.

QEPCCC Hallway Gallery Exhibition

 Submissions to our upcoming 2025 Spring Show at  Queen Elizabeth Park Community & Cultural Centre (QEPCCC, 2302 Bridge Road) have now closed. This season’s theme, “Revelations,” encourages artists to explore personal insights, transformations, and discoveries in their work—whether bold, subtle, or unexpected.

This non-juried exhibition will run from Saturday, May 24, 2025, to Friday, August 29, 2025.

Submission Guidelines

  • Online Submission: Each member may submit one artwork. The details you provide (title, dimensions, and price) must be final by April 20 as this information will be used for label printing. Changes cannot be made after this date, so please double-check before submitting. We recommend keeping a record of your submission for reference.
  • Size Limitations: To maximize display space, artwork (including any frame) must not exceed 30″ x 30″.
  • Label and hanging requirements: Will be available here soon.
  • Accepted Mediums: All mediums taught at OAS are welcome, including photography.
  • Hanging Requirements: All artwork must have D-hooks securely attached to the back. This is a requirement from QEPCCC, and we cannot accept pieces without proper hanging hardware. Please check that your piece is ready before drop-off.
  • Sales: Artwork may be marked for sale or listed as Not for Sale (NFS). If sold, OAS will handle the transaction, deducting a 20% commission.
