Pre-Selection and Judging Procedures

 Pre-Selection Panel

• Each year the Organisers appoint a Pre-Selection panel to review entries.
• The Panel will initially review and assess all submissions received, and will decide which works will be invited to exhibit at the Art Show.  At this time we will accept all works of art, but reserve the right to reject any pieces of art that are not acceptable.  Our decision is final.
• The Show Judge/s may or may not be part of the Pre-Selection panel.
• All decisions on acceptances are final and no correspondence or discussion will be entered into.
• 1st prize winner ($2,000 prize money).
• 2nd Prize winner ($750 prize money).
• 3rd Prize winner ($250 prize money).
• PLUS up to 5 highly commended (no prize money) awards.
• People's choice (voted by the public) at this time $100 prize money.
• Encouragement Award a voucher from Adelaide Central School of Art up to the value of $350

Artists will be notified of acceptable works of art by 14th October 2024 at the latest.

Awards are announced on opening night and all artists are again invited to attend opening night, complimentary (NOTE your guests must pay the $40 entry fee).

We will broadcast the winners on the website and announced on facebook.
