emerging curator program

The Emerging Curator Program is designed to discover curatorial talent in Los Angeles and provides opportunities for emerging curators to partner with LACE. For the program’s eleventh installment, one project will be selected for presentation in 2026.

This year, the program is accepting curatorial proposals centered on moving image works that can be presented as a single program, or programming series, rather than an exhibition. Emerging curators are encouraged to propose projects that can be presented in a gallery space or theater over no more than four days/evenings. Exact format and scheduling to be coordinated in collaboration with the LACE team.
