Programming proposals

The Cinémathèque québécoise receives proposals for residencies, film series and exhibitions twice a year: from September 15 to 30 and from March 16 to 31. We respond to proposals received at the end of the following month.

Proposals must include the following information:

• Project description including argument for its originality (one page max.);
• Artistic approach (one page max.);
• CVs for all artists, programmers and/or curators involved;
• List of selected or planned works;
• Preliminary budget;
• Desired dates for the residency, program or exhibition;
• Expected contribution from the Cinémathèque québécoise;
• Detailed technical requirements;
• Supporting materials (press clippings, photos, video clips, etc.);
• Partners and prospective partners.

Only applications with supporting materials will be considered (visuals, video links, etc.).

The entire application must be delivered as a single PDF.

Applications are not to exceed 15 pages (11-point type).

Please note that exhibitions are currently planned two years in advance. Programming proposals require one year of lead time.
