Event Details

The RBSA Membership is made up of almost 200 artists whose practices are rooted in a diverse range of media and techniques.  Exploring both traditional and contemporary approaches, the RBSA’s Annual Exhibition showcases over 150 artworks, all of which are for sale.
The first Royal Birmingham Society of Artists Annual Exhibition (then the Society of Artists) was held in 1827 and, with the exception of 1940, 1941, and 2020, has taken place every year since.  This will be the 24th Annual Exhibition held in our current Brook Street premises and the third since the refurbishment of the Gallery in 2022.
The artists exhibiting this year range is age and experience, and the Membership welcomes those who have followed an artistic education as well as those who are self taught.  Indeed, some of the current Membership came to their artistic practice and to the RBSA following careers in industries not related to the arts.
Every two years, the RBSA Graduate Artist scheme encourages emerging young artists to join the Membership, and many of the class of 2023 have work in this show.  Not only does this ensure the future of the Society and help to keep it relevant, it also adds further diversity to the scope of artistic practices within the RBSA Membership.
Exhibiting artists will be in the Gallery every Saturday throughout the exhibition to talk about their work, giving visitors a fascinating insight into their process.  These talks also provide visiting artists with the opportunity to talk to current Members and discuss ways in which they can become part of the Society.
Private View: Thursday 14 November 6.00pm – 8.00pm
Artists’ Talk: Every Saturday throughout the exhibition 2.00pm – 3.00pm
Exhibition ends: Saturday 4 January 2025 5.00pm
