Sample-Studios Summer Members Exhibition
24 July – 31 August 2025 in The Lord Mayor’s Pavilion and
6 September – 4 October 2025 in The Market Gallery, Douglas
We invite our members, studio-based, Associate Members and Creative Network members to submit up to two small-scale 2D works for consideration for the Sample-Studios Summer Members Exhibition 2025. We’re delighted that this year the exhibition will be presented in our own public gallery The Lord Mayor’s Pavilion during the busy summer months in Fitzgerald’s Park before travelling onto The Market Gallery, a new commercial gallery in Douglas Shopping Centre, for an autumn exhibition. As the work will be ‘touring’, the work must be framed.
We’d like to facilitate as many members as possible so we particularly welcome small works.
Exhibition Submission Information and Timeline:
Submission Deadline, 26 May, 1pm: Submit a brief statement about your work (Max 200 words), and a short bio and high quality images of the work (minimum 300 dpi), title(s), medium, dimensions in cms and price(s) in one pdf to programme@sample-studios.com
Where work is framed, please note the dimensions of the work incl framing.
Please note that where the work is sold in The Lord Mayor’s Pavilion, a public gallery, the commission is 20%. If work is sold in The Market Gallery, this is a commercial gallery so a 44% commission rate applies (35% commission + 9% VAT). If you wish to adjust your prices accordingly, please inform us. Work that is sold in The Lord Mayor’s Pavilion will be made available to the buyer at the end of the exhibition and not be exhibited in The Market Gallery.
