The Mid West Art Prize is the Geraldton Regional Art Gallery's biennial Art Prize. This exhibition features a diverse survey of Western Australian Contemporary Artists, exhibited over both floors of the Gallery.

The Prize receives a high quantity of entries, requiring a rigorous shortlisting process held by external judges. Once finalist artworks are curated in the space, the final award judges are invited to view the exhibition and select the winners of the various prizes. All judges are external to the Gallery and the City, providing their valuable expertise and industry experience to the selections.

We look forward to delivering our ninth Mid West Art Prize, encouraging all artists in WA to apply.
