Now in its fourteenth year, this exhibition offers a unique opportunity to see some of the most promising talent in Scotland in one single, large-scale exhibition in the heart of Edinburgh. Showcasing 57 graduates selected from the 2021 degree presentations, the exhibition is a brilliant overview of the current outlook of emerging Scottish art and architecture.

 

This year selection was made by Exhibition Convenor Annie Cattrell RSA, with assistance from her fellow Academicians and representatives from the five main colleges of art. The five Scottish schools of architecture are each represented by graduates selected by Architecture Convenor Rab Bennetts RSA.

 

We are delighted to be supported once again by our Exhibition Patrons Walter Scott & Partners Ltd, to have The Skinny as our Media Partner and to have Glenfiddich as drinks sponsor and a major award giver.
