The Fish John West Rejected 2026
Various artists from Brisbane & beyond!
An exhibition of artworks that were rejected in 2025.
Mezzanine Gallery
16 January - 1 February 2026
Wed to Sun, 9.00am-2.00pm
At The Churn Room, we believe that artworks rejected from a juried/curated event, award, prize or exhibition are worthy of being shown for the beautiful examples of art they are.
While they may not have been what the judges of that particular art event were looking for, that doesn't mean they aren't good enough.
In fact, often times those artworks are simply amazing to behold.
So we present to you, the first glance at artworks that didn't make the cut... The Fish John West Rejected: a collection of both 2D and 3D artworks from artists across Australia.
(Thank you to Ulrike Foerster for "Gone Fishing", the hero artwork for this exhibition)
