HUNTER EMERGING
ART PRIZE
The Newcastle Emerging Art Prize, with its proud 20-year history, is now known as the Hunter Emerging Art Prize, and it’s more than just a change of name.
The prize is evolving in a few different ways. A broader scope that embraces the whole Hunter Region, a new Experimental section and a Youth Prize were added for 2021.
