Studio Voltaire’s annual open submission exhibition aims to showcase the strength and diversity of its membership, which currently comprises over 250 artists.  The exhibition is open to entry to all artists, working in any medium, who are studio or external members of Studio Voltaire.  Every year, the changing panel, made up of artists, writers and curators select artists’ work.
