Dazed Club has partnered with The Gallery at Hackney Downs Studios to offer an aspiring curator the chance to stage an exhibition in East London for three weeks starting 12 March. The selected curator will receive a £1,000 fee, a £2,000 production budget, and support from the Dazed team, including a private view. Applications are open via the Dazed Club app until 10am on 29 January.
This opportunity matters because it provides a rare platform for emerging curators who lack access to gallery spaces, helping to diversify the voices and artists shown in London's contemporary art scene. By removing financial and logistical barriers, the initiative fosters new talent and strengthens the connection between grassroots curators and established creative networks.
