The RSA Annual Exhibition is the largest and longest-running annual exhibition of contemporary art and architecture in Scotland. The focal point of our year-round exhibition programme since 1826, the exhibition showcases work from our Royal Scottish Academicians alongside artists and architects carefully selected from online open submissions. The Open Architecture element aims to highlight the most interesting and engaging architectural projects across Scotland and beyond.

Architects may submit up to TWO works of any size in any suitable medium – including drawings, schematics, digital imagery, photography, models, video work etc.
Entry is £30 per work (student and under 26s £10) plus £10 hanging fee if selected.
