Welcome to the Together! 2026 Open Exhibition, taking place annually in July to celebrate Disability Pride Month. Curated by Alison Marchant and the Together! 2012 Team, our annual exhibition brings together work by amateur, community, student, semi-professional and professional Disabled artists of all ages. Anyone with a Newham or Together! 2012 CIC connection – for example, living, studying, working or volunteering in Newham now or in the past, or taking part in Together! 2012 activities – and who identifies as a Deaf or Disabled person* is able to submit one family-friendly work for guaranteed inclusion. *Including people with learning difficulties, people with long-term health conditions including mental health, people with additional mobility needs, visually impaired people, people who are Deaf or hard of hearing, neurodivergent people… Clicking on an image will display it at full size to enable you to ‘get up close’.
Thanks to: Art for Fun, INUF, Together! Art Club and all of the Exhibiting Artists for their support.
We will be celebrating the exhibition on Thursday 16 July from 7-8pm on Zoom. If you would like to join us, email kate@together2012.org.uk for the link.
