This prize is held biennially, every odd year.
The exhibition showcases major works by significant Australian and international artists, some of whom have created sculptures especially for the University's Campbelltown Campus.
The campus landscape - open space, rolling hills, lakes and vegetation - is an ideal setting to display large outdoor sculptures. A diverse range of sculptures have been chosen from abstract steel to kinetic and large figurative pieces.
The Western Sydney University Sculpture Award and Exhibition aims to establish closer links between the University and artists, and engage with the community by providing a valuable educational and cultural resource, as well as enhancing the campus environment for teaching and learning. Picnic and bbq facilities are available for the public to use around the exhibition site
