The New Emergence Art Prize 2021 offers a £500 cash prize and a permanent feature in our online gallery. We want to help underrepresented artists to gain exposure and provide financial support.

This is our third open call and during these difficult times we have decided to raise the prize to £500 and lower application fees.

The winner will be awarded a £500 cash prize and a permanent place in our online gallery. We want to keep application fees as low as possible, so entries will cost only £10 for one artwork, £15 for two and £20 for three works (fees cover admin costs & contribute to the prize fund).

1. Complete the application form

2. Submit 1 JPG image per submission (up to 2mb per file) Please include your full name and the title of your artwork within the JPG, following this format: Firstname Lastname_Artwork Title (e.g. John Smith_Artwork Title).
