OPEN CALLS

 


Hanover Creative Gallery (HCG) is seeking work in all mediums for our November 2026 exhibition Buy Now Pay Later, on display from November 6th - January 9th, 2027. 



Buy Now Pay Later is an open call for artwork which comments on contemporary consumerism. Artists are invited to submit works which examine consumerism in all its forms, the thrill of over indulgence, our addiction to what's new, and the structures in place that streamline the impulses of our "animal spirits". This exhibition is curated by Hanover Creative Curator and Programming manager, Áine Mickey. 

See exhibit timeline, process, guidelines, and submission form. For questions please email curator@hanovercreates.com. Entry deadline is Monday, October 12th, 2026.
