Lines of Enquiry: Graphic Arts and the Afterlives of the Material Past
Friday 6 November 2026 at Burlington House, Piccadilly and online

CfP deadline: 2 September 2026

Our annual Collections and Research Day presents the work of early career researchers and collections professionals. This year the event is inspired by our extensive Prints and Drawings collection, which includes works on paper from the sixteenth to the twentieth centuries, depicting artefacts, architecture, and landscapes. We welcome contributions from early career researchers and creative practitioners that engage with graphic media broadly defined, including (but not limited to) prints, drawings, book illustration, maps, architectural drawings, ephemera, comics, graphic novels, and digital graphic art. 

Please contact Dr Anouska Lester and Dr Chiara Betti at events@sal.org.uk with any queries.
