Welcome back to the RSA home page

The 70th Anniversary Summer Show was a fabulous exhibition, very well attended and given all the necessary covid caveats was a very successful show. Our annual aim is to put on a wonderful show of members work alongside a curated showcase of works from the public submission; 2D and 3D works professionally hung and displayed. We did achieve that this year and the response from our audience was extremely positive; our 3rd best exhibition ever in terms of sales and financial return to our artists and the RSA funds. This means we confidently go through with plans for next year. Thank you all for the extraordinary effort it takes to put on the show and thank you to our audience for buying work and making exceptional donations into our ‘hands free’ bucket!

We are very pleased to announce that we have now secured the Rye Art Gallery for the RSA Spring Show 2022. We will open on Saturday March 19th and close on Sunday April 24th. The RSA AGM will be held in the Stormont Studio at RAG on Saturday April 23rd.Further details of the opening times and the Private View will be announced at a later date.

The committee are very grateful to the family of John Owen for making a bequest of paintings to the RSA in order to raise funds, details of these paintings will be available, on the web site, in due course.

Our members are involved in many exciting exhibitions over the coming months, please do continue to follow us on social media for news of exhibitions, open studios and other events.

With very best wishes and thanks for your continued support
