Results emails were sent to all artists on the 21st of July, 2025.  Please ensure that you have checked your results prior to booking your hand in slot. 

Key Steps:

Book Your Hand-In Slot:

• If your work is selected, you must book a hand-in slot above.
• Drop your work off on one of the specified days only. We cannot accept work on other days.

Hand-In Address:

• Address: RWA, Queens Rd, Clifton, Bristol BS8 1PX
• Parking: Available on the forecourt during drop-off. There is limited space, so please move your vehicle promptly after delivering your work. There are road works happening around the RWA so please allow extra  time.

Key Information:

• Be prepared for potential wait times during busy periods.
• Arrive anytime within your booked hour slot (e.g., for a 1pm slot, arrive between 1:00pm and 1:59pm).
• RWA technicians can assist with large or heavy works. You may also bring your own help.

How to Label and Deliver Your Work:

1. Print off your QR code that was sent in your results email.
2. Attach your labels:
   • Use thin white card or paper for labels, attached with string and strong tape. The string should hang in front when mounted.
   • Labels should not be laminated or in plastic wallets. They are recycled after the show.
   • Include your name and title of work on the back.
   • Clearly mark the top of the work with a 'this way up' indicator on the back.
3. Delivering Your Work:
   • Works should arrive unwrapped. Space will be available to unwrap on delivery. Take packaging with you.
   • Fragile works can remain wrapped if the image is visible during placement.
