Space will be allocated on a first come first served basis. Should we have a large amount of entries and we cannot find room for them all then your money will be refunded.

However, you can secure your place by paying the fee in advance of dropping off your work. This will ensure you are included in the final exhibition. 

There is a limit of 5 pieces per artist for each category. You can enter as many categories as you wish; if you would like to enter the same artwork in two categories for example – you have a piece that is Littlehampton and Blue then an extra £5 to pay for the second category.
