2026 Environmental Art & Design Prize
The Northern Beaches Environmental Art & Design Prize is one of Australia’s leading competitions for both art and design with an environmental focus. Every year, artists and designers from across Australia are invited to submit their work for their chance to inspire a more sustainable future.
The exhibition of works by finalists across the categories showcases innovative and thought-provoking art and design in a diverse range of media. Open to creatives of all ages and backgrounds, including young people aged 7 to 18, the Prize is judged by respected leaders in visual art and design.
Finalist works are presented across the Northern Beaches, including at Manly Art Gallery & Museum and Curl Curl Creative Space.
