WINTER GROUP SHOW 2026/27

Tomorrow marks one month until the submission window closes on 24th October!

If you have already purchased your pass, there is still plenty of time to prepare your submission. We look forward to seeing your work whenever you are ready!

If you haven’t yet secured a pass, a small number remain. Passes have been snapped up twice as quickly as last year, so we would encourage you to secure yours soon if you would like the opportunity to submit.

These installation shots from previous Winter Group Shows are a reminder of what makes our annual flagship exhibition so special. Bringing together an extraordinary breadth of contemporary art from across the UK and overseas, the exhibition fills the gallery with new discoveries and familiar favourites, making it a highlight for artists, collectors and visitors alike.

Our Winter Group Show Prizes will also return this year!
Submission passes are available via the link here ; https://www.lindenhallstudio.com/events/111/overview/

Once purchased, you will receive an email with instructions on how to submit your work.

Thank you, as always, for your enthusiasm and support. We cannot wait to bring this year’s exhibition together!

Trip to London to attend Varnishing Day at Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.

The journey included a visit to Tate Britain to pay homage to the master that is JMW Turner. The collection includes the great self portrait aged 24 years.

Full of inspiration after viewing the works ‘up close’.

A prolific artist of oil painting, watercolour and of course, drawing.

It is no wonder he had RA connections at such an early age with such prodigious talent!
