Annual Members’ Exhibition

SUBMISSIONS HAVE NOW CLOSED FOR 2020. PLEASE CHECK BACK IN EARLY 2021 FOR THE NEXT ENTRY FORM.

One exhibition each year is for our members to participate and display their artwork. This years’ Members Exhibition has been scheduled for 20 November – 16 December 2020. For 2020, the timely exhibition theme The Future asks members to be inspired by their own interpretation of the future – whether it is of memories of what they expected 2020 to be like, or current thoughts or concerns about the immediate or long-term future.

The exhibition features a $1000 art prize generously sponsored by Bamford Medical Practice.

Please make sure you read the conditions of entry below – particularly regarding size, date parameters, commission etc.
For 2020, Umbrella Studio is introducing a mandatory image upload section for the form.
