April 2015 marks the second anniversary of The Black Cat. During which time we’ve hosted over 65 exhibitions and openings, and had over 7,000 attendees walk through our doors. To mark the occasion we are hosting a juried exhibition on the main floor gallery at The Gladstone Hotel. A space that is over twice the size of our own!

We are looking for your submissions, spanning the diverse community of photographers, painters, sculptors, drawers, printmakers, new media, interactive and all other mediums.

The following Jury will review submissions, with specializations in various mediums, and with a diverse background in a variety of creative fields:

Tara-Lynn Bartolini, Agent and Curator, Boondock Agency.
Devan Patel, Curator and Co-Director of Project Gallery.
Daniel Neuhaus, Director of Photography, Toronto Life Magazine.
Kara Lynne Wark, Art Director, JWT Toronto.
