4 open calls in Canterbury / Waitaha are open, and the next to close is UNTITLED — Expression of Interest on 10 October 2026. The list is updated weekly.
Check each listing's eligibility. Some are for Canterbury artists only, and others are open across New Zealand or beyond. The listing shows who can apply.
An open call is any invitation to submit work or a proposal without needing an existing relationship with the organisation — the most accessible entry point in the arts.
