Registration for the 2021 Chichester Open Studios Art Trail is currently open. If you would like to take part in the event, you can register your details online using our handy form.
It is impossible to predict, at this early stage, whether a Trail can go ahead in May 2021. So we have devised a 4 phase plan of action to best deal with changing times in 2020 – 2021.
PLEASE BE SURE TO READ THE INFORMATION AND GUIDANCE NOTES FOR ARTISTS (link below) for a full understanding of the terms and conditions of entry.
You will not be able to partially complete or save the form - it must be completed in one session. So the following preparation will be helpful:
Your artist’s statement/biography (200 words maximum).
3 images of your artwork, on this computer, to upload. (The first is for the Trail Guide and all 3 will be on your webpage).
These images must be as JPG files, of size between 1mb and 3mb each.
Rename the image files of your artwork with your name followed by a sequence number eg JoeBloggs1 JoeBloggs2 JoeBloggs3
To be able to make your payment online.
Once you have completed the form, you can pay the registration fee of £75 (reduced fee for 2021 only) by online BACS payment (online payment is preferred, but payment by cheque is an alternative).
2020 artists please note - the 2020 fee will not be carried over to 2021, see Newsletters sent in March 2020.
Additional notes
Please use normal upper and lowercase type, not block capitals.
Register in your own name not a trading name.
Each artist must register and pay individually.
Please note that only artists living in the Trail area, or those who have permanent studios within the area, are eligible to join.
A maximum of 2 artists may share a Venue.
Or in the case of a permanent studio complex, all artists working at the site must register for the Trail.
No late entries can be accepted. Registration ends at midnight on 30th November 2020.
Maximum of 180 artists for the 2021 Trail, on a first-come-first-served basis. Once this upper limit is reached, no further entries will be accepted.
Please be sure to proof read your registration because the information you provide here will be uploaded directly to your website page and used for your Trail Guide entry.
