An Abstract Adventure - Open Call
We are now accepting entries for An Abstract Adventure at the Badger in the Wall Gallery located in Clapham, North Yorkshire. It is free to submit.
Badger in the Wall Gallery is looking for work to feature in our month long Abstract Adventure where we are encouraging submission of abstract work of all mediums.
We have a fantastic Gallery space in the village of Clapham, North Yorkshire, in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park and are really excited to welcome submissions for this exhibition.
If you have never participated in an exhibition before and are not quite sure where to start, then we would love to see your submission. Likewise, if you are an exhibition regular, again, we want to see your work.
Work of any medium will be considered, and artists are invited to submit up to 3 pieces of artwork they would like to put forward for the exhibition.
Artists who are selected will have their work displayed in our gallery for the duration of the exhibition, in an online gallery on our website, and printed in the exhibition programme, which will be available to purchase from the gallery or can be posted out.
How to Submit
Artists are encouraged to submit up to 3 pieces of work for consideration. It is free to apply, with only successful artists paying an exhibition fee of £30 per accepted work. Please make your submission via CuratorSpace using the link on this page.
