Annual Exhibition 2024
Thank you to everyone who has supported us during our 2024 Exhibition.
​
This year, Banstead Art Group celebrates 77 years of showcasing our member’s artworks at our annual exhibition. It was great to see that we had over 450 Visitors and we would like to thank everyone who came along and helped us out during the show.​
We invite our members to enter up to 8 framed paintings each. This is a great opportunity for our artists to showcase different aspects of their practice. This year, we had over 180 paintings, drawings and media works on display. We also had browsers of unframed work and a number of cards which, as always, were very popular! By the end of the three days, we had sold a total of 31 paintings.
As we have in previous years, we asked members of the public to vote for their favourite painting and this year’s winner was
Helen Smart with ‘Toffee’
Look out for this painting on our adverts for next year exhibition.
Second place was Louise Collins with ‘Walking in a Winter Wonderland’
Third place was Eric Moore with ‘Wednesdays’
​
Well done everyone.
We would like to congratulate Barbara Kerry, on winning the Pullingers Prize for their painting ‘Summer.’ They win a Pullingers Gift Voucher.
​
Well done Barbara and Thank you to Pullingers Art Shop for sponsoring us.
Over the summer months we asked our members, to let their inspiration run riot and paint an artist palette. Inspired by the Painted Palette Tree at Florence Griswold Museum in Connecticut, we decided to bring our own version of the challenge to the UK.
We had all of the Palettes on display at the exhibition and held a silent auction. We raised a total of £632 and all proceeds will be donated to local charities.
