Image of the banners installed along the Artwalk in downtown Kelowna, 2021
Each year, the Outdoor Banner Exhibition Program showcases 13 original works by UBCO students, staff, faculty and alumni. The banners are installed in the springtime on the light standards at the Rotary Commons—the greenspace between the Kelowna Art Gallery and the Rotary Centre for the Arts—and the Art Walk pathway between the Rotary Centre for the Arts and the Downtown Library. This project is made possible with the partnership and funding from the City of Kelowna.
Have your artwork printed on a banner to be installed in the Artwalk downtown Kelowna (between the RCA and KAG). Banners will be installed in April or May (weather dependent) and up for the full year until they are replaced.
Banners will be printed to 26”wide x 48” high, in colour. (note, your work does not have to be this size, we will size to fit). The artist’s name and Creative Studies department logo will be added to the lower right corner, visible to viewers.
FCCS alumni, staff, faculty and students in the BFA, BMS, BA with a major in an FCCS program, MFA, MA, or IGS in an FCCS theme, are all eligible to apply.
Deadline for submissions: January 24, 2025
Please note, you are not eligible to apply if you have had your artwork on a banner in a previous year.
