The Hutchins Art Prize has been held since 1997, annually until 2005 and since, biennially. The 2015 award, worth $20,000 to the winner, will be the 14th time we have staged this nationally respected competition. The School runs one of the most significant works on paper prizes in the country in order to demonstrate our commitment to excellence in the visual arts. Our award attracts entries from both established artists and exciting new talent providing a wonderful opportunity for art lovers to purchase pieces by highly collectable artists who rarely show works in Tasmania.
