Since 1958, the Muswellbrook Art Prize has grown and evolved and is today one of the richest prizes for painting in regional Australia. Finalists for the Muswellbrook Art Prize vie for a total of $70,000 prize money across three prize categories: Painting ($50,000 acquisitive), Works on Paper ($10,000 acquisitive), and Ceramics ($10,000 acquisitive).
Astute adjudication of the Prize over the years has yielded an excellent collection of modern and contemporary Australian paintings, works on paper and ceramics from the Post War period of the 20th Century and into the 21st Century, with the winning acquisitive works forming the nucleus of what is now known as the Muswellbrook Shire Art Collection. Previous winners of the Muswellbrook Art Prize include such key figures as David Aspden, Sydney Ball, Richard Larter and Fred Williams. The Upper Hunter Region is also well represented with a number of local artists being successful in winning the Prize including Peter Atkins, Dale Frank, Lyn Nash and Hanna Kay.
Along with Muswellbrook Shire Council, who since 1958 has acted as sponsor and administrator of the Muswellbrook Art Prize, Bengalla Mining Company has generously sponsored the Prize for close to three decades, their commitment ensuring the development of the Muswellbrook Shire Art Collection.

The Burwood Art Prize invites artists across Sydney to engage, consider and reflect upon one or more of the following themes; Visibility, Ritual and Legacy. Each of these words can be examined and negotiated in a literal, abstract, formal and informal sense.
We encourage you to see these words as lenses through which your art can be perceived by different people in different ways; a portal and invitation to our audiences to explore broader ideas around identity, community, culture and personal experience. Artists are also invited to consider how each of these themes may connect or disconnect with their practice, experience, surroundings or environment.
For 2023, the Art Prize has been opened up to a series of new categories, and will accept works in the following mediums:
•Digital artworks (moving or still)
•Photography
•Painting
•Printmaking
•Drawing
We are also thrilled to announce that for the first time the Prize will be open to all Sydney-based artists who are Australian citizens or permanent residents. We are asking artists to engage with one or more of the following themes guiding the prize: Visibility, Ritual and Legacy.
