International Postcard Show 2025

International Postcard Show 2025

Opening Night: Friday 10th January 6pm-9pm
11th January – 8th February
 

Surface is delighted to welcome back the International Postcard Show. This vibrant, long-running exhibition is a highly popular feature of our calendar and includes hundreds of original artworks from established and aspiring artists from all over the world. All submissions are included, from painting and print through to textiles and illustration, creating a wonderfully eclectic mix of artwork.

All artwork available for sale is priced at just £15, so this is a fantastic opportunity for aspiring art collectors to snap up an original work of art at an affordable price.

Participating artists will have the opportunity to exchange their postcard with another artist selected at random at the end of the exhibition. We hope that this exchange will help foster new connections and encourage communication among artists from diverse backgrounds and different parts of the world. 

A panel of Surface judges will select three prize winners. The prizes include

£100 Opulent Art first prize

Etsy gift voucher as second prize

A year’s subscription to Aesthetica magazine for third prize.

The People’s Prize is chosen by visitors to the exhibition who will have the opportunity to vote for their favourite artwork. The People’s Prize will be an exhibition in our alternative art space, Le Loovre.

The International Postcard Show 2025 opens in the Main Gallery.

As always, there will be a donations bar with ales from local brewery, Pheasantry.
