All exhibiting members that have paid their fees before the end of March are eligible to display their works. Application forms will be available soon.

Last year over 60 local artists showcased their work. The works were judged by Liz Chaderton. The awards for the winning works were presented by two Wokingham mayors, Councillor Louise Timlin (Wokingham Town Council Mayor) and Councillor Rob Comber (Wokingham Borough deputy Mayor), the president of the Wokingham Art Society, Jenny Halstead, the chairman, Peter Izod, and Philip Gray, representing Daler Rowney, which sponsored the exhibition. Additionally, as it is costumary, the Sandra Fagan award, for the best watercolour artwork, was presented by Peter Fagan, supported by his family. The exhibition welcomed over 1,000 visitors, including Clive Jones, Wokingham MP. A considerable number of works were sold.

Pictures of the awarded works can be found in the gallery.
