Clontarf resident Nadine Sawyer’s Inspiration Machine acrylic on canvas took out the Local Art Award last year.

Council Spokesperson for Lifestyle and Amenity, Denise Sims, said this year’s prizes included $8000 for the overall winner, four category winner prizes of $2000 and two supplementary $1000 prizes for a Local Artist and a People’s Choice Award winners.

“In addition to the generous prizes, this competition provides all finalists with a platform to have their work professionally hung as part of a beautifully displayed exhibition across two weeks in May,” Cr Sims said.

“The Art Awards are the biggest of their kind for this region and I would encourage artists to make a submission.”
