Exhibition of 130 works by 80 local artists from the Lincolnshire Artists' Society, marking its 120th anniversary, with pop-up artist residencies.
The Lincolnshire Artists' Society are back at the Usher Gallery from Sunday 15 November 2026, with their 2026/27 exhibition running through to 14 March 2027. It's a big one this time around: 130 works by 80 local artists, including Rachel Rogers, and the whole thing is opened by Dame Barbara Rae CBE RA.
There's a bit of history behind it. This exhibition marks the 120th anniversary of the Society, which traces its roots back to 1906 when it started as a drawing club. Over more than a century, its purpose has stayed the same: to showcase its artists. This year's open call brought in 173 submissions, which the selection committee whittled down to about one or two pieces per person. Most of the works on the walls are for sale, so if you spot something you like, it's worth asking.
It's not just a static show, either. Alongside the exhibition, a programme of pop-up artist residencies runs into February, giving you a chance to meet the artists and see the process behind the work. The Society's long run continues to sustain Lincoln's wider contemporary art scene, and this exhibition is the latest chapter in that.
