Have your say in the DorKing Coronation celebration of local art and artists! Voting closes 9th April at 6pm.

The theme of the installation is: ‘Celebrating Dorking’s Heritage, Culture and Spirit’. We have welcomed all artists, at any skill level, from all areas of Dorking and the local area to submit their vision of what makes Dorking unique.

We will display your favourite pieces of art on large, open air sails at the entrances of town and across a large banner across West Street. Don’t worry about the dimensions of the works, we will sort that all out. The vertical and horizontal banners will remain during the summer months for everyone to enjoy and appreciate. Members of our wonderful local business community have also offered to feature and celebrate our winning artists’ work in their shops.

Vote for your top three favourite pieces of art from the gallery below. Select the top 3 pieces resonate that with you, and what display will best represent the diversity of Dorking’s dynamism when one enters the town from Reigate Road, Horsham Road and Westcott Road? What captures the spirit of Dorking, what makes our town unique and unlike any other place? Let’s feature our local talent!

Imagine this art exhibition replacing these sails and banners:

The art exhibition will welcome visitors and residents to Dorking.

Thank you to all of our talented artists for sharing their vision and passion for Dorking with us.

Any questions, please contact us at info@dorkingtownpartnership.co.uk at any time.

The Artwork

Each piece has the name of the artist below the artwork and a corresponding voting number next to it. We are presenting them in their original sizes so that they may be viewed and appreciated, versus a gallery format. Please select your top three and vote using the form at the bottom of this page by 6pm on 9th April.

Voting is now closed – stay tuned for our winners. Thank you for participating in our competition!
