The award, which was established by the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory (MAGNT) in 1984, recognises the important contribution made by Indigenous artists and promotes an appreciation and understanding of the quality and diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art throughout Australia, with support from principal sponsor Telstra.
Lauren Ganley, General Manager of Telstra’s Indigenous Directorate said this is one of Telstra’s most significant sponsorships.
