The Homiens Art Prize is a premier international opportunity for artists awarding over $12,000 USD in unrestricted funding annually. Designed to be a catalyst for professional growth, this non-acquisitive prize ensures that artists retain full ownership of their work. Whether you are an emerging artist looking for a career launchpad or an established professional seeking industry recognition, this merit-based and prestigious award offers a global platform to showcase your talent. View our previous winners here.
- Eligibility: Open to all art forms and artists internationally. Works completed in any year are eligible.
- Prizes: 3 winning artists and 12 finalists will exhibit with Homiens as part of our quarterly exhibition program. Each winning artist receives an unrestricted cash award of $1,000 USD, may participate in our optional artist interview series The Art of Art: Interviews, and may request a letter of recommendation from our jurors. We celebrate up to 200 highly commended artists each round across our media (including the Homiens website which receives 100,000+ annual visitors, and our extensive mailing list). Each entrant to the Homiens Art Prize may request a participation certificate which can be used to contribute towards a demonstration of professional artistic engagement.
- Further Initiatives: The prize additionally offers international visibility via exciting features such as our curated Meet the Artists initiative and Promoted Artists program.
