JOIN THE HANGING & ARRANGING COMMITTEE

We’re looking for four members of the Society of Scottish Artists to be part of the Hanging and Arranging Committee for the 126th Annual Exhibition at The Royal Scottish Academy, Edinburgh.

SSA is an artist-led membership organisation and encourages all members to contribute to the Society and its activities. This is your opportunity to shape the presentation of our forthcoming Annual Exhibition.

What’s involved?
The Hanging and Arranging Committee will work with members of the SSA Council, artists and the installation team on the presentation of the exhibition.

You will need to be available to be on site at The Royal Scottish Academy on Monday 18 November, Tuesday 19 November and Wednesday 20 November between 10am – 5pm.  Reasonable travel expenses will be reimbursed.

What are we looking for?
Artists with a hands-on approach and an eye for detail, you will be experienced in exhibition presentation and confident in handling artworks with the ability to work as part of a busy team with very tight deadlines.

We are looking for members who have experience of working with digital media, sculpture and installations, as well as more traditional exhibition hangs.

All members are welcome to apply. We are interested to hear from Society members who have not previously taken part in exhibition committees.
