APPLICATIONS ARE NOW BEING INVITED FOR OUR FUTURE

POP UP EXHIBITIONS THIS YEAR AT BLUEWATER. 

PLEASE NOTE, WE DO NOT HAVE DATES FOR EXHIBITIONS YET.

YOU ARE APPLYING TO JOIN US FOR FUTURE EVENTS AND WE WILL

CONTACT YOU IF YOU ARE SUCCESSFUL AND ONLY WHEN WE HAVE

CONFIRMED DATES. 


APPLICATIONS VIA THE LINK BELOW.


Please ensure that you read our terms and conditions thoroughly before applying.

After the huge successes of our previous events, we can offer the opportunity for you

to join our growing portfolio of artists by applying online via our website.

We carry forward our ethos of supporting artists, whether professional, amateur, or

emerging.

This will enable you to showcase and sell your work at one of the UK’s major retail

venues.

Our exhibitions continue to promote an inclusive, uplifting and joyful vibe celebrating

community, mindfulness, and kindness. Therefore, we are looking for work of a

positive theme, which can be of any medium.

 

The entry fees are £200 with commission charged on sold work of 25% (+ 2% card payment handling fees). This option requires 3 days only of stewarding across the whole event.

There will be some places available to exhibit without the requirement to steward during the event, for an entry fee of £350 with commission charged on sold work of 25% (+ 2% card payment handling fees).  Set up and take down will still be required for this option but the UTR team will manage the artist’s display for the duration of the exhibition.

Successful 2D artists will be allocated a space (approximately 2 x 2 metres wall or 2.5 x 1.8 meters panel) within the venue. 3D artists will be allocated sufficient space for a display of at least 2 x 2 meters.

PLEASE NOTE THESE ARE APPROXIMATE SIZES AS IT DEPENDS ON THE UNIT WE ARE GIVEN.

 

We supply all panels and 3D display equipment. Please note because our Bluewater events use otherwise empty units, we are subject to the availability, size/layout and lighting available within the units. Every effort is made to provide the best lighting and layout available at the time but we are unable to alter the lighting available. 

Each artist will be required to hang/display their own work during the set-up week and will be required to help steward the exhibition on a rota basis. Artists will need to be available on take down day.

 

Artists will need to have their own insurance in place covering loss or damage and public liability

 

If you would like to be considered for this exhibition, please follow this link where you can apply online.
