UNDERCURRENT: 2019 ArtsCape's Emerging Artist Prize Winners will be selected by representatives from our award sponsors. Most prizes are acquisitional and this should be taken into consideration when entering. An art prize that aims to showcase the incredible local artists from our beautiful and remote region of Tasmania. We encourage all members of the Cradle Coast region to enter their artworks. At ArtsCape we are looking at ways in which to bring together a community of like minded people and to show the diversity of creatives in our remote and regional area. What are the conditions of entry? Entrants must not be considered professional artists (see above definition) and are current residents of the North West or Cradle Coast Region of Tasmania.
