The Discerning Eye Drawing Bursary, worth £1,500, is now open for applications. Established in 2002, the bursary supports artists in developing their practice with both financial assistance and the opportunity to exhibit as part of the ING Discerning Eye Exhibition at the Mall Galleries.

​

UK-based artists are invited to submit up to three works, along with a short proposal outlining how the bursary would benefit their practice.

 

From these submissions, a shortlist will be selected to show their work in this year’s Annual Exhibition.
