Armidale Art Prize
The New England Art Society is holds the Armidale Art Prize and Exhibition annually just after Easter in the calendar year. This event continues the tradition of showcasing a cross-section of regional art and has become the highlight of the Society's year.

The New England Art Society supports and encourages art in New England and the number and quality of this years entries shows the success in this endeavour.

The Armidale Art Prize began in 2009. This year, we have returnedto a more traditional approach to the categories in which artists can enter their works.   The three categories are:
  • Paintings
  • Works on Paper, and
  • Sculpture/ Craft Art.

We also have a People’s Choice and an Environment Prize that sit across all categories. 

Each of the three categories have a first prize of $700 and a second prize of $300. The Environment prize is $400 and the People’s Choice, $100. These prizes are made possible due to the generous support of our sponsors.
