RBA STAR STUDENTS COMPETITION 2020

Developed with the Royal Society of British Artists (RBA), the RBA Star Students competition encourages aspiring young artists who are identified by The Arts Society's local Societies and whose artworks are entered for it. The RBA then selects the very best pieces for exhibition in London. 

This year 41 finalists were chosen from over 200 entries for their exceptional artworks. The 20 top artists will appear at both the Royal Over-Seas League (ROSL) and the Mall Galleries and an additional 21 artists will be shown at ROSL.
