ENTRIES OPEN | 2024 Jacaranda Acquisitive Drawing Award (JADA)

Grafton Regional Gallery invites artists from across Australia to submit entries for the 2024 JADA.

First Prize: $35,000

Early Career Award: $5,000

The JADA is Australia’s richest regional drawing award. This award seeks to encourage and promote innovation and excellence in drawing, and plays a vital role in fostering Australian drawing practice. The JADA provides an opportunity for artists to further their arts career.

Over the years the JADA has documented the development of contemporary drawing practice in Australia, and has captured how drawing has changed and evolved.

At the official opening of the exhibition to be held on Friday 27 September 2024, two prizes will be awarded. The acquisitive prize of $35,000 proudly sponsored by the Friends of Grafton Gallery (FoGG), and a non acquisitive prize of $5,000 for an Early Career Artist.
