13% into the RUA

Dear Bronagh,

On behalf of the Royal Ulster Academy, I would like to thank you for entering your work for selection in our forthcoming Annual Exhibition at the Northern Bank, Belfast and I am delighted to inform you that your piece has been selected.

This year’s entry level was unprecedented with 1454 submissions from 900 artists. This increase, combined with the challenges of a smaller venue, presented our selection panel with a very difficult task and resulted in just over 13% of the total number of artworks selected.

In the coming weeks we will be preparing the exhibition venue, arranging the catalogue and working on publicity for the exhibition. I shall shortly be sending you an invitation which admits two only for the Opening Evening on Thursday 1 October 2009. Due to the popularity of the Preview, and Health and Safety Regulations, I regret we will be unable to accept requests for extra invitations. In the meantime I will keep you up to date with any other exhibition developments via email.

Kind regards,
