The Bath Open Art Prize 2022 - Submissions now open!

Now in its 10th year, The Bath Open Art Prize 2022 is open to submissions from anywhere in the world. All are welcome to enter artworks in any medium including; painting, print, photography, 3D and video; small site-specific installations can also be considered.

The prize acts in part as a fundraiser for the Fringe Arts Bath Festival, an annual platform for Visual Artists tending to operate outside the more conventional gallery-based arts scene. Reflecting Fringe Arts Bath's inclusive ethos, all genres are welcome, including more idiosyncratic or whimsical works.

The submission deadline is Friday 16th September. Don't miss out!

The submission fee for one artwork is £20, or £30 for up to three artworks.

An exhibition of works selected by this year's guest judges, Gracie Divall and Roger Clarke, will be open from 19th to 30th October 2022 at 44AD artspace in Bath, UK.

Prizes include £500, £250, a solo exhibition, and £50 art vouchers for the winner of the People's Choice Award.

Huge thanks to our kind judges, supporters and sponsors for generously contributing your time, resources and the prizes; The Arts Society Bath Evening, The Arts Society, 44AD artspace, Minerva Art Supplies, The Studio, and Bath Spa University.
