The Open Exhibition is an open to all visual art competition. It offers artists the opportunity to exhibit as part of a professionally curated and public-facing show, taking place over all 3 gallery spaces of Vivacity’s Peterborough Museum and Art Gallery. Entrants also have the chance of winning £1200, £750, £500 or £250!

Entries are accepted in the form of painting, drawing, photography, prints, sculpture and applied arts. Installation and performance art will be considered, but will depend on available gallery space. Each artist can submit a maximum of 3 works.
