< class="qodef-accordion-title"> How do I become an Artist of The Month on your webpage? + - >
All you need to do is be a great art maker from anywhere in the world and then click here to submit your art. We change our Artists every month, so there’s plenty of chances to be featured. If you’ve joined our mailing list and follow our social media, you’ll already know when our call outs are.
< class="qodef-accordion-title"> How can I display my art in one of your exhibitions? + - >

Best way to know about display opportunities and open calls is check our Opportunities page or to join our mailing list . Currently all our exhibitions are in our London gallery spaces, and we’re currently only accepting artists based in London.

< class="qodef-accordion-title"> I saw an artist's work at one of your exhibition but I can't remember their name! + - >

Don’t worry, check the Exhibitions page to see if you can spot the artist there.

< class="qodef-accordion-title"> Do I need insurance to exhibit my artwork? + - >

If you want guaranteed protection over your artwork while exhibiting, you might consider insuring your own work. Try A-N insurance for artists. There are many other insurance options to choose from. Do your research and find something that suits you.

< class="qodef-accordion-title"> How do you select your artists? + - >

We are big on showing support to artists that don’t always get a chance to exhibit. So we look for artists that show a great deal of potential and skill, and have a clear passion for what they’re doing.

 

When we partner with venues for exhibitions or arts markets, we’ll get their opinion on what art works best in their space. Sometimes we make call outs for specific artists, for events based on certain locations or demographics.

 

As for the types of art, we’re always open! We love to find artists doing new and cool things. For the website, we accept art in any medium, except film and performing art. Although sometimes we consider film and performance art for certain occasions or events.

< class="qodef-accordion-title"> Can I write something for your blog? + - >

We look forward to sharing useful articles with our readers that are specifically aimed at artists, creatives and the development of their work or practice.
