Submit your school's work for GENerate 2026

GENerate returns to The Base Gallery in January 2026
Following the overwhelming success of past years, The Base, Greenham is proud to announce the return of the GENerate: Student Art Exhibition from Friday 9 January to Sunday 25 January 2026. Now in its fourth year, GENerate is a celebration of young artistic talent from schools and colleges within a 30-mile radius of The Base. It offers students a unique opportunity to exhibit their artwork in a professional gallery setting.
To continue to showcase the incredible variety and uniqueness of young people’s creativity, we are welcoming new and returning schools to take part. Each institution may submit up to 10 pieces of 2D or 3D artwork, which will be subject to a selection process based on presentation, creativity, originality, technical skill, and variety of media used.

Participation in GENerate is free and offers invaluable experience for young artists, inspiring them to pursue their creative passions.
“The smiles on the faces of students when they see their work says it all. The confidence boost is immeasurable, and they take this into their life as a whole.”
“I am very proud to say I have made something that was displayed for many people to enjoy seeing.”
“It is the best school/college student exhibition I have ever seen, let alone been a part of.”
The application deadline is on Friday 24 October 2025 at 5pm.
