Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2024 Twitter Post. The royal academy summer exhibition: Spend the day exploring over 1,700 fabulous works of art by famous artists and members of the public.

The summer exhibition, an annual open call show that allows anyone to submit work for selection, gives amateur artists a shot at relative stardom in rooms curated by big time academicians. In celebration of the royal academy’s 250th birthday and coinciding with the great spectacle exhibition, a new open access publication by the paul mellon centre looks back at 250 years of the summer exhibition.
