We are currently running a virtual exhibition each month on our Teignmouth Art Society Facebook page and showcasing entries on this website. Up to three pieces of original artwork can be submitted. Members and non members can vote for their favourite picture by clicking on the like button. The work with the most likes by 2pm on the last day of the month will be awarded Best Artwork of the month. It will also help to raise the profile of our talented individual artists.

Suggestions for our newsletter to Sarah at art20sagar@gmail.com or 0775 1795188.
If you are not on the internet family or friends could post your artwork to be entered into the competitions (Sarah is happy to explain over the phone). Others are setting up WhatsApp groups through their mobile phone, meaning you can then send texts, photos and even video chat.
