For the past 17 years, Xpace Cultural Centre gears up for Alternative Tentacle, one of the most exciting exhibitions to take over our gallery every Spring.

Before we know it, a whirlwind of young artists have transformed our space and our walls are suddenly jam-packed from floor to ceiling with photos, paintings, stencils, stickers, you name it! It’s always a burst of fresh energy to work alongside these young, up-and-coming artists to celebrate the end of an era and welcome a new cycle of learning, creativity and entrepreneurship.

Our immense congratulations to all the artists! We know it’s tough times, but your art and enthusiasm is uplifting, and we can’t wait to see what you bring into the world on these next steps in your journey.
