Artwork Call Out!

It’s that time of year again where we invite you to submit art for the annual art exhibition. Submission opens from Friday 1st August to Monday 15th September…

The theme for this year’s art exhibition is Beneath the Surface, which can be interpreted in whatever way means something to you. The exhibition offers a platform for adults with lived experience of mental health, and those who work in mental health support services to share their creative expression.

Exhibition Details:

  • Venue: The Circle, 33 Rockingham Lane, Sheffield S1 4FW
  • Dates: 1st October – 31st October, with a special celebration event on opening day (details to come nearer the time).
  • Entry: The exhibition will be free to attend (open Monday to Friday)

Submission Guidelines:

  • Timescale: Submissions are open from Friday 1st August to Monday 15th September.
  • Artwork: You may submit up to two pieces of artwork/writing. This does not include any art from the July and September workshops. Please note if we have a high number of submissions we may only exhibit one of your pieces.
  • Size Limit: Maximum artwork size is A1.
  • Framing: All artwork must be framed unless it’s not suitable (e.g., 3D art, canvas).
  • Sales: Artwork will not be for sale during the exhibition.
  • Please note: We are not able to accept digital submissions.

Further details on submissions and a consent form to submit with your work is available from Sheffield Flourish in person or via email.

This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with the community and share your experiences through art. We encourage you to participate and look forward to seeing the diverse and powerful work that will be showcased.
