Bus is committed to taking Melbourne artists’ work to and undertaking exchanges with galleries around Australia and Internationally.

To date Bus has held shows at First Draft, MOP Projects and Phat Space in Sydney and hosted reciprocal shows by First Draft and MOP Projects.

Bus was also included in Artport 2003 where it had the opportunity to present a paper on the gallery's ethos and organisational structure.

In 2005 Bus continues its inter-gallery program with its first cross-Tasman exchange. At the invitation of the Plimsoll Gallery, University of Tasmania, Bus has curated a show of 108, predominately Melbourne based artists’ work to be sent to Hobart. The show included many of the artists who have exhibited with Bus over the years as well as a local DVD compilation and the Outer series. An exhibition of Tasmanian artists at Bus is scheduled for later this year. Bus’ show (Curated by Tristian Koenig):
