U245 Student Gallery: CCS's venue for student-generated exhibitions
The U245 Student Gallery offers matriculated students from all academic departments; a fully equipped venue in which to exhibit their work, either as part of a department-organized show or a curated student exhibition. In September 2018, the U245 will move into its new permanent space, prominently located on the ground floor of the Art Centre Building on the College’s Ford Campus.

Current Exhibition
Finding Out About Feelings
Opening February 8, 4-7pm
February 8 – March 8, 2019
Finding Out About Feelings is an exhibition that examines the artists' past through re-appropriated readymades. Through self-reflection and sculptural compositions, Allie Runyan, Jacob Wonch, and Anthony Brazeau excavate their personal histories in relation to the everyday object to understand the how the environment they inhabit shapes them into the people they become.
Call for Proposals
CCS degree-seeking students are invited to submit proposals for exhibitions in the U245 Student Gallery as well as site-specific projects throughout campus. Proposals should include:
- 3-5 images representative of the work they would like to present
- an artist statement

This call is open to all majors, all departments and all media. Projects may consist of installation, painting, photography, performance, dance, audio/video installations, site-specific works, poetry readings and beyond. Group and solo exhibitions will be considered. Submissions are accepted on an ongoing basis throughout the year.
