Art Friend is looking for artists who submitted work to the Royal Academy and were rejected but still have their work available. We encourage artists to apply who have smaller, affordable pieces of artwork but are also open to everything! The exhibition date will be from the 14th July.

RA Rejects is a show coming to a venue in London in July which will celebrate some incredible artworks that have been overlooked by the Royal Academy and will give them the chance to shine!

Art Friend, a friendly AF art gallery, making everyone feel welcome in the art world. We are looking for artists who submitted work to the Royal Academy who didn't get in and still have their work available. Ideally, we are looking for smaller, affordable pieces of artwork but are open to everything. The exhibition will be around the 14th July so your artwork will need to be framed and ready to deliver around this time.

Art Friend works on a 50/50 split, the work will need to be exclusive for Art Friend for the show and 2 months afterwards. Delivery and collection of artwork will need to be organised by the artist. Prior to the show and during the show I also ask that artists send out a newsletter (if they have a mailing list) and share details on their social media channels about the show. 

Due to the high volume of people sending art, I won't be able to get back to everyone straight away. Looking forward to seeing all your submissions!
