In 2019 there were 195 entries from 115 artists.

The Koorie Art Show is our annual award exhibition showcasing the diverse talent of Victoria’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists in one inclusive space. Due to the growth and popularity of the Koorie Art Show since its inception, and the physical limitations of our exhibition gallery to display the number of entries, in 2019 artists can only submit one artwork (either 2D, 3D or digital) to be eligible for inclusion in the Koorie Art Show. 

Prizes:

  • Creative Victoria Award for Excellence in Any Media $10,000
  • Viva Energy Australia 3D Award $5,000
  • Emerging Artist Award $5,000
  • Koorie Heritage Trust Encouragement Awards ($500 x 2)
  • and the Koorie Heritage Trust People's Choice Award $1,000 (announced at the close of the exhibition).
