Salle Alfred-Pellan (SAP) is a museum institution dedicated to the dissemination of contemporary and current art. The SAP provides a space of manifold exchanges, first through the museological process between artists, curators, and our team, and then between the exhibitions and the visitors through its artistic mediation program. Its mission enables it to present projects of national scope while offering the public tools and activities to help appropriate the presented works.

Regular exhibitions
Two exhibition spaces: the SAP and the Foyer. Professional artists (SAP and Foyer) and curators (SAP) are invited to present an original solo or group exhibition project in current or contemporary art.

Thematic exhibitions
The SAP is inviting curators to submit proposals for a group thematic exhibition in the 2022-2023 winter season. This exhibition of contemporary or current art includes an important educational segment. For more information, please write maisondesarts@laval.ca, specifying “SAP – thematic exhibition” in the subject.

File Submissions
The proposals must include the following documents: a description of the project (maximum 2 pages); a résumé (CV) for each of the participating artists or collaborators (maximum 3 pages per résumé); an artist statement for each of the participating artists (maximum 1 page per artist); 10 digital images (high resolution JPEG images) of the works, identified, numbered, and accompanied by a descriptive list, along with video excerpts, if applicable (total duration of no more than 10 minutes). The support material must be presented on media readable on the Windows platform (MOV, WMV, MPEG-4).
