May Salon is a traditional Springtime exhibition featuring the work of around 680 members of the Union of Slovene Fine Arts Associations (ZDSLU), which usually takes place at the City Gallery, Ljubljana and at Jakopičev paviljon. In 2005 it was hosted for the first time by four galleries on the coast, and co-organised by Insula-Obala Visual Artists Association.

Each year there is a general annual presentation followed by a thematic show - previous themes have included New Media (1997), Sculpture (1998), Painting (1999) and Primordial Touch (2000). In 2003 all 110 works were shown unselected. The 2004 May Salon presented the work of 130 artists from all of the Slovene regions under the name POP, with P as Pomembno ('Interesting') or Prešerno ('Merry'), O as Odlično ('Excellent') or Odvisno ('Dependent') and P as Prezrto ('Overlooked') and Pozabljeno ('Forgotten').

Since the 1990s the May Salon has concluded with the presentation of the May Salon Award on the artist of the best work and on the best young artist.

Works displayed at the May Salon exhibition are usually for sale.
