Artists & Illustrators is delighted to be back with The British Art Prize 2026. Enter today for the chance to win prizes worth over £10,000, a solo exhibition at a major London gallery and be featured in our magazine.
This major international art competition will expose winning artists of all levels to a far-reaching platform to gain valuable publicity and recognition for their work. Open to everyone – whether you’re an amateur, emerging or professional artist – all styles, media* and techniques will be considered.
The British Art Prize offers an unprecedented level of national exposure and the chance for artists to sell their artwork to a combined audience of almost a million art lovers and collectors. There is also a whopping prize fund which includes cash prizes, and shortlisted artists will be included in our exhibition at OXO Gallery from 21-25 October 2026.
Shortlisted artists will also be invited to a prestigious private view reception on 22 October 2026 alongside artists, collectors and other VIP guests.
