Call for art 2023 (Now closed)

Open until: 12pm on Monday 10 July 2023

People who have personal lived experience of mental health issues are invited to submit an artwork to the 11th Out of Sight Out of Mind exhibition, held in October 2023, at Summerhall in Edinburgh.

Take part as an individual or as a group. Artworks can be in any media and one artwork per person can be submitted. Last year people showed paintings, sculptures, drawings, installations, films, animations, sound works, photographs, craft and more. See the website for previous exhibitions.

You can also apply for a grant to help with materials costs until 19 June.

You are welcome to respond to this year’s Scottish Mental Health Art Festival theme ‘Revolution’, however this is not a requirement.
