Are you a Black or *Global Majority artist or artisan living in the UK? CasildART Contemporary is inviting artists from these communities to submit their work to be considered for an affordable art fair during the holiday season. Calling *Black and Global Majority to submit their work for a December art Fair.

The fair will be hosted at CasildART Gallery in the heart of Marble Arch, London.

The purpose of the exhibition is not only to showcase art but to provide a platform for marginalised or disfavoured groups to showcase their work and meet fellow artists, art enthusiasts, and collectors. 

There will also be a preview to which the artist and their guests will be invited to attend. 

The exhibition will accept all mediums, including paintings, ceramics, photographs, and more, with an upper price limit of £1000.

We have decided on this upper price limit to encourage new buyers into the market and to generate sales for the artists and the gallery.

Terms and Conditions 

• Entries are welcome from Black and Global Majority artists living in the UK.

• The following mediums are accepted: prints, photography, drawing, mixed media, collages, painting, ceramics and sculpture.

• To participate, please complete the application form and submit your entry before midnight on 15th November 2024.  

• There is an Exhibition Fee of £80. The fee will contribute to the cost of putting on the exhibition, paying for the space and invigilation for the four-week run. 

• We do not receive any funding, so this is also a fundraising event for the organisation

• This is a selling event, and a 50% commission will be applied to the retail price.
