The Fisher’s Ghost Art Award is an annual art award and exhibition inviting artists to submit works in a variety of artistic categories and mediums. Now in its 61st year, across the categories there is over $60,000 in prize money to be won. In 2023, the celebrated Open Award, which is acquisitive to Campbelltown City Council collection, is valued at $50,000.
Up to two artworks can be entered in the different categories with exhibition finalists selected by a panel and judged by three industry professionals who will collectively choose the winners for each category and award.
