We are delighted to announce The Poly Members’ Summer Exhibition Call for Entries!
The Poly Members’ Summer
Exhibition is a long-running, annual art show that welcomes applications for 2D
and 3D works in all media and artistic disciplines. This exhibition is a celebration of the artistic talent
from our community – displayed to showcase the best works from both established
and new artists. It
takes place in our beautiful Main Gallery upstairs at The Poly, and all members
of The Poly are welcome to submit artwork.
In The Poly archive there are records of the Members' Exhibition running nearly every year from 1960 onwards, and even some mentions of exhibitions taking place pre-war. And of course, the work of the then Royal Cornwall Society in the 19th century in bringing art classes to the town was a precursor to the eventual establishment of the highly respected Falmouth School of Art, now Falmouth University.
To apply please download an application form here. To find
out more about becoming a member of The Poly please click here.
Deadline for submissions: Tuesday 5th July 2022
Exhibition: Tuesday 2nd August - Saturday 20th August, open Tuesdays - Saturdays, 10am - 5pm. Free entry.
Private View: Tuesday 9th August, 5pm-7pm - all welcome!
A very big thank you to Poly member Jon White (www.jonwhiteart.com) for letting us use his artwork on our promotional materials.
