Two opportunities have arisen for exhibitions coming up later in the year at Orleans House Gallery in Twickenham and the Riverside Gallery in Richmond. Both galleries are popular and hold regular successful exhibitions throughout the year. There is an administration charge for both exhibitions; hopefully you’ll think the opportunity and exposure will be worth it! These two calls for submissions are open to artists nationwide. Good luck!
