Young Archie 2017 competition

Budding artists between the ages of 5 and 18 are invited to submit a portrait for the Art Gallery of NSW’s Young Archie competition, as part of our family-focused activities for the Archibald, Wynne and Sulman Prizes 2017 exhibition.

The portrait should be of a person who is special to them – someone who is known to them and plays a significant role in their life.

There are four age categories:

  • 5-8 year olds
  • 9-12 year olds
  • 13-15 year olds
  • 16-18 year olds

The competition will be judged by the Art Gallery of NSW’s community engagement manager Victoria Collings, and a guest judge, based on merit and originality.

Five finalists from each category will be exhibited at the Gallery and on the Gallery website. One winner will be chosen in each category.

Artworks that receive an honourable mention will be displayed on the Gallery website and at the SH Ervin Gallery in the Rocks alongside the Salon des Refusés.
