All submissions will be included in this vibrant and hugely popular exhibition. The International Postcard Show will feature hundreds of original creations in an array of different media by established and aspiring artists from all over the world. 


All artists can choose to have their work on sale during the exhibition; postcards will be priced at £15 each. If postcards remain unsold, all participants have the opportunity to exchange their postcard with another artist, who will be randomly selected at the end of the exhibition.


In the case of no sale or if you opt out of selling your work(s) and do not wish to take part in the international exchange, your postcards will be returned to you via post following the exhibition.


The deadline for submissions is 6pm, Friday 6th January 2017.


We will also be awarding prizes for the 1st and 2nd place postcards, selected by the exhibition coordinators. There will also be prizes for Best Local Artist and the People’s Choice. Visitors to the exhibition will be voting for their favourite postcard which will win a free exhibition in our Loovre.
