The $6,000 Tasmanian Art Award is an art competition and exhibition held each year at Eskleigh Home near Perth, Tasmania with all works offered for sale to the public. The Exhibition will be held between Saturday 21 and Sunday 29 April 2012, with a Preview Evening on Friday 20 April to open the exhibition and announce the Award winners.
The $6,000 Tasmanian Art Award at Eskleigh is designed to promote Eskleigh by raising public interest and appreciation of Eskleigh’s work in the community. The Tasmanian Art Award is also intended to facilitate the public’s exposure to the artists’ work and to reward artists’ efforts with cash prizes and awards for excellence.
The Tasmanian Art Award is a significant event in the Tasmanian Arts Calendar and attracts artists with established reputations as well as new exhibitors. Last year 200 entries were exhibited. All artwork is for sale and may be viewed during the nine public exhibition days.
