Call for Participation | 5th Turkish Community Art Exhibition

Yunus Emre Institute and the Turkish Consulate General in London call for participation in the 5th Turkish Community Art Exhibition from artists of all abilities! 

Calling all Turkish artists based in the United Kingdom. Yunus Emre Institute London are excited to announce that the 5th Turkish Community Art Exhibition is open for art submissions! Housing the original works from artists of all abilities and in all mediums from paintings to digital arts, this annual exhibition organised by Yunus Emre Institute London and the Turkish Consulate General in London aims to create an opportunity to bring together both established, emerging and amateur artists to promote solidarity and unity within the members of Turkish community living in the United Kingdom. 

Due to the pandemic, the exhibition was held online in the past couple years. This year, we are delighted to announce that the exhibition will take place in person at Yunus Emre Institute London. 

Alongside the in-person exhibition, there will be an online Exhibition Catalogue available for all art lovers across the world to enjoy.

A jury of notable names, including the Turkish Republic’s Consul General of London, Bekir Utku Atahan, Yunus Emre Institute London Director Dr Mehmet Karakuş, and a number of UK-based Turkish artists, will pick the artworks to be displayed in the Exhibition.
