Strathnairn Arts Association, in partnership with Ginninderry and artsACT, is thrilled to announce the launch of the inaugural Strathnairn Arts Small Sculpture Prize (SASS). This prestigious new award seeks to celebrate and highlight the creativity and innovation found in small-scale sculptural works by artists from across Australia.
The prize encourages a diverse range of artistic expression, with submissions open to artists of all levels—from emerging talents to established professionals.
The SASS prize will be determined by a panel of appointed judges, who will review each entry before shortlisting 30 finalists.
The same panel will then select the 1stPrize ($10,000) Highly Commended ($3,000) and Emerging Artist ($1,000). The selected finalists are invited to showcase their work in a dedicated exhibition at Strathnairn Arts Association Woolshed Gallery, an inspiring venue set amidst the natural beauty of the Strathnairn region.
The Strathnairn Arts Small Sculpture Prize is designed to foster artistic growth and promote the development of sculptural practice, encouraging artists to explore new forms, materials, and concepts.
This initiative not only recognises the finest small-scale sculptures but also provides a platform for meaningful conversation and appreciation of contemporary Australian art.
Strathnairn Arts has a proud history as a facility that has been home to many artists working in three-dimensional media. It continues to play an important role in the community with its accessible foundry, ceramics studios, and unique natural environment. Strathnairn Arts Association Inc. is a not-for-profit arts association supported by the ACT Government.
This rich legacy will inspire conversations about the differences between large public sculptures and smaller, more accessible works.
Venue: Strathnairn Arts Association, 90 Stockdill Dr, Holt ACT 2615
