The Ingram Prize is an annual purchase prize open to visual artists within five years of graduation from a UK-based art school. This leading prize for contemporary artists was established by The Ingram Collection in 2016 to celebrate & support artists at the beginning of their professional careers.

We recognise the vital importance of practical support in these early years, and through the Ingram Prize, we offer opportunities to exhibit & sell work, continuing professional development, and the chance to develop both industry and peer-to-peer networks. Eligible artists can submit up to two works in any media - no restrictions on size & no entry fee.

Prizes:

?? The Ingram Prize: 3 artists will receive the Ingram Prize & have their work acquired for The Ingram Collection.

?? Founder’s Award: 1 work will be personally selected by Chris Ingram and acquired for The Ingram Collection.

?? London Art Fair VIP Lounge Exhibition curated by Jo Baring: 2 artists will be invited to showcase their work at this prestigious art fair in January 2027.

?? Professional Practice Day: talks by industry specialists, hosted by The Ingram Collection for all finalists at the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art in January 2027.

?? Residencies - all finalists can apply for three wonderful opportunities
