Apply For Professional Membership

Alan-Bond-ThePlanetarium-w

The SSA are now inviting applications from Ordinary Members for Professional Membership to the Society of Scottish Artists (SSA).

The SSA is an active network of artists with a membership of 591, which includes a Professional Membership of 115.

Professional Membership is for artists who are actively practising professionally within one or more branches of the Visual Arts and is by selection only in recognition of their talent and dedication in this field.

Professional Membership permits you to add the post-nominal title ‘SSA’ after your name to indicate that you hold this professional accreditation.

Professional Members have all the benefits of Ordinary Membership but in addition may submit additional works at the Annual Exhibition and pay a lower rate of commission on sales. They are also eligible to submit work to  Professional Member Exhibitions.
