City of Hobart Art Prize
The City of Hobart Art Prize has not taken place since 2015. During this time, we have undertaken an extensive review. We are excited to announce that on 23 April 2018 the Council endorsed a new model to replace the City of Hobart Art Prize. The program will be publicly launched in February/March 2019.
To find out more please phone 03 6238 2430 or email castlej@hobartcity.com.au
