Woolgather Art Prize

The Woolgather Art Prize 2012 is a national showcase of contemporary artists and art practice, focused on engaging a wide public audience. Based in Leeds and set up in 2011 by three new graduates it was born from a need to explore artist's role in society and celebrate creative lifestyle.

The prize presents the opportunity for artist's involvement in an exhibition and participation into an exploratory process creating work for a website and publication. All shortlisted artists stand the chance to receive prize money of £1,000, £500, £250, entirely determined through a public vote, open to all.

The project continually supports an open platform of exciting contemporary art and engages dialogue from the audience, ultimately striving to promote innovative artistic endeavours.

We need your help to make this happen. This money will help us to provide a brilliant oportunity and platform for artists from all over the country, an exciting event and exhibition for all to attend, and material on the website and in the pubication that offers insite into creative development.
