The Fleurieu Biennale Art Prize committee has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 art prize. As you will be aware, COVID-19 is resulting in an unprecedented and very rapidly changing situation, with many public events being postponed or cancelled.
Although our event is a few months away, the committee felt that it was important to make a decision now to reduce the uncertainty that further restrictions may cause.
We recognise the difficulty that the arts community is facing during these unprecedented events and know that this will be disappointing news for those of you who have already completed entries, or are currently completing work to enter.
Anyone who has already entered the art prize will receive a refund of your entry fee. We expect that will be processed within the next 4 weeks.
We are committed to delivering the best art prize that we can, and will commence planning for the 2022 Fleurieu Biennale Art prize.
