Experience the power and beauty of the sea at the Royal Society of Marine Artists Annual Exhibition 2026.
The RSMA Annual Exhibition features a vast range of work by various artists - members and non-members alike - all interested in celebrating the sea. The common theme is the sea and tidal waters although, within that remit, work is wide and varied.
Subjects range from deep water shipping to coastal scenes, competitive sailing to quiet harbours, marine wildlife to still life. The work is representational in the broadest sense and includes painting, sculpture, printmaking, drawing, textiles, and mixed media.
A long-standing source of inspiration, the sea is interpreted here in many different ways—making this the flagship survey of marine art today.
