INSIGHT AWARD
Last year we started a new tradition of awarding two young artists with an 'Insight Award'. Selection of the winners is based on how well the artworks communicate the artist's perspective on the world, or a particular issue. Entry is optional. When you submit your artwork you will be asked if you want to enter the award and you will need to answer a couple of questions.
If you're interesting in submitting your art work, please contact:
Julia on 02 8594 9552 / 0466 67 2010 or julia@twenty10.org.au
(available Mondays and Fridays)
Rebecca on 02 8594 9564 / 0466 64 2010 or rebecca@twenty10.org.au
