Fronteer Gallery are looking for postcard sized artworks for their exhibition Postcards 2025.

Fronteer are holding a postcard exhibition.

The exhibition has no set theme, so artists are welcome to produce any work on any subject they like as long as it is postcard-sized. 

We would also welcome 3-D postcard sized works which can stand on a plinth.

Work should be on paper or card and should be A6/ postcard sized (10.5x14.8cm). Work must be unframed and will be hung using Command Strips.

Artists are invited to submit up to 3 pieces of work for the exhibition.

Please complete a separate form for each submission.

You may provide a short description of no more than 150 words, but this will not be displayed alongside the work.   

UK-based artists from all backgrounds are invited to submit.

It is free to apply with only successful artists paying a fee of £12 fee for each piece of work selected.

The exhibition will run from 8th - 18th January 2025.

There will be a Private View event on 7th January from 5.30-7 pm.

Please note, the gallery is upstairs and there is no disabled access.

In return for your fee, you will get a private view evening with free drinks which you are welcome to bring friends and family along to, invigilation throughout, and promotion of the exhibition online through social media posts.

The submission deadline is 30th November 2024

Successful artists will be contacted by 2nd December 2024.
