Celebrating the work of artists from southeast Queensland and northeast New South Wales, The Border Art Prize is one of the most highly regarded awards in Australian art. The annual prize recognises the diversity and imagination rampant within Tweed Shire, Gold Coast City and adjoining Council areas of Byron and Kyogle Shires, Lismore, Logan and Redland City and Scenic Rim Regional Council. The Gold Coast City Gallery will be hosting the 2015 exhibition of works considered and awarded The Border Art Prize, which encompasses work from emerging and established artists that work in all media and subject matter. The exhibition will be on display from July 25 to September 6.
