About Call for Submissions: Belonging
‘Pride’ by Daniel Fobert
Intergenerational Art Installation & Storytelling Event
Quinte Arts Council Cultural Hub
Exhibition: June (Pride Month)
The Quinte Arts Council in collaboration with Bay of Quinte PRIDE invites artists and community members of all ages to participate in a special exhibition celebrating the theme of Belonging.
This unique installation will highlight intergenerational voices, bringing together perspectives from youth, adults, and seniors to explore what belonging means within 2SLGBTQIA+ communities and beyond.
What We’re Looking For
We welcome submissions in a wide range of mediums, including:
- Visual art (painting, drawing, photography, mixed media)
- Textile and craft-based work
- Written pieces (poetry, short reflections)
- Small-scale installations
Works may explore identity, connection, acceptance, community, resilience, or personal experiences of belonging.
Storytelling Component
In addition to the exhibition, participants are invited to take part in a “Show & Story” evening, where artists and community members can share personal queer stories, reflections, or the inspiration behind their work in a welcoming, inclusive space.
Intergenerational Focus
We strongly encourage submissions that:
- Reflect collaboration across generations, or
- Share perspectives from different life stages
Whether you are emerging, established, or simply curious to share your voice—your story matters.
Key Details
- Exhibition Dates: Throughout June
- Location: QAC Cultural Hub
