Art Prize opens opportunity for young artists
Artists as young as 13 can now enter the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder’s annual Art Prize exhibition which showcases the talents of artists from across Australia.
Entries into the prestigious regional art event have opened, and this year younger entrants can get involved with the youth artist category age limit having been lowered to 13-years-old. Previously the category was only open to entrants aged 16 to 18.
The city’s decision to lower the age limit is to encourage younger artists and a wider range of participants to get involved, and provide young Australians a platform to develop their craft and gain exposure.
