The RWA’s ever-popular Secret Postcard Auction is back for another year, offering the chance to purchase unique works of art by artists including leading figures from the art and cultural world from just £40, while supporting the RWA’s extensive work with individuals and communities across Bristol and beyond (Registered Charity 1070163).

ABOUT THE ARTWORKS:

We’ve got another amazing line-up this year, with hundreds of artworks to bid on. Each one measures roughly 14x19cm (unless otherwise stated), is signed on the back and accompanied by a certificate of authentication.

Since the artists remain a secret until after the auction, you can either guess who the big name artists are or just buy what you like. Bidding on each work starts at just £40, which is a very reasonable price for a unique piece of art, and if it turns out to be by an internationally famous artist, it may be worth multiple times more!

Because of the value of the artworks, we are not able to offer the option to Gift Aid your donation. If you would like to support the RWA, as well as bidding on a postcard, you can either make a donation on top of your bid which we will receive if you are the winning bidder, or you can make a donation here https://cafdonate.cafonline.org/11843#!/DonationDetails

SPECIAL THANKS:

We are hugely grateful to all the artists who have supported us by donating artworks.

We are also grateful for the support of St Cuthberts Mill and The Print Company.

The RWA has been bringing great art to Bristol since 1844. We are unique not just in Bristol, but in the UK, in being a purpose-built Royal Academy of Art: somewhere that not only exhibits the best of historic and contemporary art, but that also nurtures new talent for the future, and does so using one of the most beautiful exhibition spaces in the country.

Last year’s Secret Postcard Auction raised almost £90,000 for the RWA's work, engaging some of Bristol's most vulnerable communities, at the RWA and in the community.

Thanks to such support, we are now recognised for making art and creativity accessible for everyone, which we have done through developing meaningful, respectful and lasting relationships with some of Bristol's most underserved communities. We do all this no public subsidy, and in the face of the current cost of living crisis it is harder than ever to do this, so the Secret Postcard Auction is essential for this work to continue.

Other projects we’re working on, or have been working on, with communities recently include:-

• Tuesday Teatime Tours for people living with dementia and their companions
• Projects and exhibitions with disabled adults
• School holiday workshops for families and children and school group visits to exhibitions
• Happy Mondays sessions for autistic children and children with profound and multiple learning disabilities
• Free family Scribble and Sketch creative sessions in four areas of deprivation in Bristol
• Relaxed tours of the exhibition for babies under 12 months
