art & the letter

The Art & the Letter Exhibition is displayed each year at the CLAS Creative (previously called AGM Day) and online.

The Art & the Letter Exhibition is an annual event held both at the CLAS Creative (previously called AGM Day) and online. We welcome submissions from calligraphers, and lettering artists, regardless of their level of experience.

Participants may submit one entry free of charge. Applicants have the option to submit their entry digitally, physically, or through a combination of both methods. The topics are announced during summer and a submission deadline in late January. Each submission receives feedback from a team of esteemed calligraphers, and some entries may receive special recognition with a mention and a certificate.

Moreover, all participants in the Exhibition will automatically be included in the Brian Walker Prize draw, with a £100 prize awarded from the late Brian Walker’s legacy. Please note that this prize draw is applicable only to physical exhibits, not digital entries.
