We have decided due to some requests at the Spring Exhibition that we will put together a 2020 Calendar ready for sale at the upcoming exhibitions. If you would like to put forward your work to go into this Calendar this is what you need to know:
We required both Landscape and Portrait orientated works; approximately 13 of each will be selected. Final selection of works will fall to the committee, we will endeavour to include as many members works as possible.
You can either bring your unframed works in to the Gospel Hall any Tuesday in September where Quilliam will photograph them or members can upload ‘full resolution images’ (straight from your camera) below. The deadline is the 30th September. It is important that we know the name of the artist and the title of the work so if submitting work for photography or electronically please ensure that Quilliam has these details.
Pre-orders of the Calendar will be available if you wish to purchase as Christmas presents. Order forms will follow.
