Submission Details:
2D Work: original paintings and drawings, creative photography and original handmade prints: max size 60cm x 60cm including frame.
All work for displaying on the gallery walls must be original work, or high-quality prints of work, produced by the submitting artist, and not already been displayed in our galleries previously. Work must be framed (no clip frames) and ready to hang with 2 x D rings and cord positioned 25% down from the top edge of the frame; work on canvas doesn’t need to be framed but still needs D rings and cord.

Please clearly label each work with artist name, title, medium, and selling price concealed on the reverse or base (if practicable).
