Artists and designers are agents of change, often taking the lead in responding to environmental or societal challenges. The Environmental art and design prize brings together a dynamic community of artists, designers and audiences who care deeply about our future.  

Each year, we invite audiences to explore the diverse ways artists and designers Australia-wide have interpreted our unique Australian landscape, responded to our climate emergency and advocated for our planet through their creative practices.

  • $5,000 for each of the Open categories
