Babylon Winter Open returns for a third year, with another 'Small, but perfect' exhibition! Artist's are invited to book their slots in our December 2024 exhibition to exhibit their work in the run up to Christmas.
This years exhibition is open from Friday 6th December until Sunday 22nd December.
Details for artists:
Important information to consider before booking your space:
Entry / eligibility
Entered works must be 2D, framed and ready to hang with picture cord. In the case of canvases, these may be unframed if this is the artist's preference/intention. Artworks must not exceed 160cms when measured around all 4 sides (including the frame).
All artworks must be for sale. Babylon encourages artists to keep the prices affordable, so prices must be selling in the price range of £60 to £150 (either £60, £90, £120 or £150), as the commission rate is being kept very low. Artworks will be sold ‘off the wall’ with a large red dot indicating a sale. Artists will be advised of works sold and will be encouraged to bring in another work of a similar size as a replacement, free of charge.
There is no selection procedure. However, we reserve the right to return any work that is unsuitable for any reason - this includes, but is not limited to: items containing offensive content, poor quality of finish (ie. not in a saleable condition) or items that exceed 160cm perimeter (including frame).
We aim to accommodate only 280 works which will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
Delivery and collection costs borne by the artists.
Artists must be 18+.
Fees and selling
There is a £5 + VAT entry fee per work (£6 total), with a maximum of 4 works per artist. Spaces are non-refundable, unless your work is rejected by the hanging team for the reasons above.
Items that sell attract a flat rate commission of £10 + VAT. (£12 total deduction)
Customers will be asked to buy directly off-the-walls on the day of purchase to minimise admin and encourage sales from visitors to the area.
