NOW OPEN
NOOSA ART PRIZE 2026
Open to all media. Finalists exhibit at the J this October and list their work for sale on The Non Gallery.
A $12,000 Prize. Our Biggest Yet.
The 2026 Noosa Art Prize carries a $12,000 award, the largest in the prize's history. Selection is open to artists at any stage of their practice, with finalists exhibited together at the J in October and judged on the work alone.
For emerging artists, it's a rare chance to be hung alongside established names and seen by collectors throughout the season. Every finalist's work is also listed for sale on The Non Gallery for the duration of the exhibition, opening up a commercial pathway alongside the prize itself.
