Doddington Hall & Gardens has hosted numerous high-profile exhibitions over the past few years - most notably, the popular Sculpture at Doddington exhibition, comprised of internationally acclaimed contemporary sculptors. The Doddington Young Sculptor Exhibition will run alongside the main Sculpture at Doddington exhibition and is an excellent opportunity to exhibit beside some of the finest contemporary sculptors selected from across the country and
further afield.

Eligibility

Submissions are free and open to any UK-based sculptors, installation artists and artists working in 3D, under the age of 35.

Artists can submit up to 3 pieces. All works must be suitable to be displayed outdoors, in all weather conditions. Any work deemed unsuitable to be exhibited outdoors for the duration of the show will be refused.
Selected exhibitors must be responsible for the delivery and installation of their work themselves.

Work can be for sale, with 30% commission taken on all sales.
