'Then and Now' our 60th Anniversary exhibition, details and dates for submissions

The big change this year is the artist submission fees for the exhibition as we can no longer afford to subsidise the exhibition fees to such an extent for the venues we aspire to. Currently we are aiming to keep fees at around £100 per artist per show, depending on venue and external revenue such as sponsorship and merchandise. For the next show 'Then and Now' our 60th Anniversary exhibition, the fees will be around £100 for approx 2m wide by 3m high wall space - based on 20 artists participating, plus 12m of window hanging space for suitable work and over 90m square metres of floor space for sculpture.
