An award recognising Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artist for outstanding contributions to the recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander arts. The Aboriginal and the Torres Strait Islander Arts Board established the Red Ochre Award in 1993 to pay tribute to an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander artist who, throughout their lifetime, has made outstanding contributions to the recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander arts, at both national and international levels.

This is an award for $50,000 for an eminent Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander artist.

Nominations will be accepted from arts and community organisations and individuals. Individuals cannot nominate themselves and nominations may only be made for living artists (awards will not be given posthumously).

An Indigenous assessment panel will assess applications according to the selection criteria above. The panel may also choose to discuss projects with some applicants during the assessment process. The outcomes will be published as a Grant Assessment Report.
