Sit In / Take Away

Sit-In / Take Away is an exciting addition to the SSA Annual Open Exhibition offering a fantastic selection of small works for sale at very affordable prices.

All SSA members are invited to submit works for Sit-In / Take Away. Throughout the exhibition, works will be on show in browsers and a changing wall display.

To take advantage of this opportunity, please follow the submission guidelines detailed below.

We look forward to receiving your work!

Submission guidelines: 
All SSA members can submit one work, and Professional Members can submit up to two works.

All work must be:

  • Unframed
  • Mounted on a 30 x 30 cm board (The work itself can be smaller but must fit within 30 x 30 cm)
  • Work must be 2D and less than 1cm in depth

Work can be in any medium (e.g. drawing, painting, printing, collage, photography).

All works must be accompanied by an A4 sheet of paper giving the following details:

  • Artist

We are setting a maximum price of £250 for each work, with the usual SSA sales commission applying: 35% for Student and Ordinary Members and 30% for Professional Members.
