There is a $500 award for “Best in Show”, and a $200 “Runner up” which will be announced on 7th September 2020.
There is no fee to enter artworks into this exhibition. There is a limit of two artworks per artist. The exhibition is open to all HAEG & CRAG members, and residents of the Huon/Channel area.
All entered artwork will be exhibited online on the HAEG website, and will be stored and displayed on rota in HAEG’s Lovett Gallery in Cygnet. All artworks are for sale, with payment online or at the Lovett Gallery Cygnet.
