Selected Exhibition

CDS exhibitions selection

Each March/April our main exhibition takes place. In recent years it has been held at The Pitt Building on Trumpington Street, Cambridge.

The works exhibited are chosen by a Selection Committee of nine members of the Society chaired by the President. The Spring Exhibition is intended to provide an opportunity for new members to join the Society, exhibiting alongside existing members.

Members' Exhibition

CDS exhibitions members

 A Members' only exhibition is held in the Autumn, generally at the Leys School on Fen Causeway, Cambridge.

The Autumn exhibition is not subject to selection.

Our exhibitions feature a very wide selection of paintings, drawings, prints, sculptures and mixed media works. - Please note we do not accept photographic reproductions or digital art.

 

Exhibition Screens for Hire

The Cambridge Drawing Society has an inventory of 50 exhibition screens, which are available for hire throughout the year. The fabric covered screens measure 6 feet x 4 feet (180cm x 120cm) and can be erected in portrait or landscape orientation. The screens are self supporting with poles and bases.

As a guide, two people can erect 10 screens in one hour.

The hiring cost is £12/screen for 10 days. The hirer will be responsible for the cost of the CDS preferred carrier to deliver and collect the screens. The carrier cost is dependent upon the delivery distance. Typically in the Cambridge area this is around £110 to cover delivery and collection. (The recommended minimum number of screens for hire is 4.)

To hire the screens or ask any questions, please email Tim Duckworth: screens@cambridgedrawingsociety.org
