What's happening

Time Is the Real Currency: Open Call for Our Spring Group Exhibition!

“The true currency of life is time, not money, and we’ve all got a limited stock of that.” – Robert Harris  

Be Part of Our Spring Group Exhibition

Running as part of the renowned Brighton Fringe and Artists Open House, this exhibition is your opportunity to:  

- Showcase Your Art: Reach a diverse, art-loving audience in one of the UK’s most vibrant creative hubs.  
- Expand Your Network: Connect with fellow artists, collectors, and enthusiasts who value innovative, thought-provoking work.  
- Spark Conversations: Your art will explore how time shapes our lives, choices, and creativity, inspiring reflection and dialogue.  
- Earn Recognition: With widespread visibility across Brighton, your work could attract not just attention but potential buyers, too.  

Why This Theme?

Time is a shared experience. It’s fleeting, precious, and yet universally available. Through this exhibition, we challenge artists to think: How does time influence the way we live, love, and create? Your interpretation could inspire others to see their time and their lives in new ways.

Who Can Apply?

We’re seeking bold, visionary artists from across the UK and beyond. Whether you’re emerging or established, we want your unique perspective and voice to be part of this collective exploration.
