Public Liability Insurance

I require insurance for an art exhibition and wish to find the best premium. Can anyone help please?

Extract:

Due to recent increased demand from professional artists, the SAA has launched two additional levels of membership which include Free insurance cover for paintings at exhibitions, and include third party public liability insurance for artists.

Highlighting down to me, but hope this helps - good luck with the exhibition!

£5m public liability, which will cover all types of artwork, exhibitions and more - not only the 2D work that the SAA covers.

£34 per year on Direct debit, and includes the monthly magazine.

Thanks for this lead, I'll follow it up.

Thanks for this info. I had checked out the SAA terms, but was looking for something cheaper. The art cover, even as a Gold Member (needed for the Public Liability) isn't worth a lot as, in common with other similar insurance, in the event of a claim you only get back the cost of materials and labour. Also, the max cover is £5K and if the total value of your work exceeds this none is covered. The https://www.a-n.co.uk site looks OK so will investigate this one further. Thanks again.
