Propeller Art Gallery is an artist-run co-operative and exhibition space in Toronto’s Queen West Art + Design District that supports innovative, sustainable programming.
Propeller was established in August 1996 by a small group of Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD) recent graduates. Their mission was to create an affordable community art gallery for emerging Canadian artists, offering a professional exhibition venue and necessary support in career building.
Propeller continues to uphold this today, supporting artists from emerging to established, through a dynamic approach to arts programming, a venue to exhibit art, and education through member-assisted learning and collaboration.
Propeller Gallery is part of the cultural community in Toronto’s vibrant Queen West Art & Design district. Propeller actively fosters artists’ creative pursuits by hosting curated, juried, and member exhibitions. Additionally, it provides platforms for networking and learning through lectures, workshops, and artist talks.
Propeller has an active roster of artist members who share their creative spirit, and embrace the local arts community. Propeller continues to garner public interest and critical acclaim as an essential artist-run centre in Toronto.
Propeller mounts new art exhibitions every three weeks. Our annual programming schedule includes member exhibitions, and Open or Juried Calls.
Since 1997, our annual curated exhibition has been a key component of our programming. We have engaged distinguished guest curators spanning various cultural and professional domains, including Canadian artists, gallerists, writers, and critics.
Over the years, Propeller has reached hundreds of artists from multiple ethnic, cultural, and social backgrounds. Our annual programming includes exhibition opportunities for marginalized artists from diverse communities, largely underrepresented in Canadian art galleries andInternship opportunities for students.
