The United Society of Artists

About our Society:

What is the UA?

The United Society of Artists is an independent, non-profit making society that exhibits high quality works of art at its Annual Open Exhibitions in London. Members-only Satellite Exhibitions are also held at various sites during the year.
The UA, which celebrates its 90th birthday this year, was founded to give artists living outside London an annual opportunity to exhibit in the capital. There are now no geographical restrictions to entry and, in recent years, Satellite Exhibitions have greatly expanded its range of activity.

What type of work does the UA exhibit?

The UA welcomes the submission of figurative and non figurative work in two or three dimensions and any medium to its Open Exhibitions. Some Satellite Exhibitions may be more specialised.

Why should I join the UA?

By joining the UA you enter a friendly community of artists.
At the Annual Open Exhibition members may each submit free of charge up to six works for consideration by the Selection Committee. UA exhibitions attract exhibitors of international quality and provide excellent exposure to the world of affordable and collectable art.
Only UA members can exhibit at the UA's Satellite Exhibitions. These exhibitions are primarily funded by the participants but receive some support from UA funds.
