Hope and Sons Art Awards
At Hope and Sons, we believe creativity has the power to bring people together. Hope & Sons sponsor the bi-annual Art Awards, a community art competition that celebrates the talent and imagination of Dunedin artists.
Celebrating Local Creativity
The Art Awards are open to artists across Dunedin and Otago. With categories for different ages and mediums, the competition gives everyone from school students to established artists the chance to share their work.
Supporting Our Community
For us, the bi-annual Art Awards are more than an exhibition. They’re about supporting the cultural life of Dunedin, encouraging self-expression, and creating opportunities for local artists. It’s one of the many ways we give back to the community we’ve been part of for over 135 years.
Exhibitions & Awards
Selected works are displayed in a public exhibition, giving the community the opportunity to enjoy and celebrate local creativity. Prizes are awarded across categories, recognising both emerging and experienced artists.
