what is The Open Art show?
The Open Art Show is an accessible art exhibition.
Hosted at a central London gallery space, the show celebrates emerging talent with themed exhibitions that inspire unique submissions.
We actively support and mentor first-time artists from submission to sale, fostering a nurturing environment that builds confidence, encourages connections, and helps you share your art with the world.

How much is it?
It's free to apply to the Open Art Show!

Do i have to be there all week?
No, you don’t need to be there the entire week. You’ll just need to drop off your work and collect it (if unsold) at the times specified in our Show Information Pack—we’ll take care of everything else! That said, we highly recommend attending opening night to meet fellow exhibiting artists and network.
