If I am asked to send my selected work in for the finalist exhibition, when do I have to deliver it?

Personal Delivery: Saturday 22 January & Sunday 23 January 2022 (10am-1:30pm)
Courier Delivery:  Tuesday 25 January 2022 – Friday 28 January 2022 (9am –5pm)
All works must be delivered to Te Kōputu a te whanga a Toi - Whakatāne Library and Exhibition Centre

I understand there a Youth Award as one of the awards. How young do I need to be to qualify as a 'youth'?

If you are age 25 years and under as at 12th February 2022, you will qualify for the Youth Art Award.  This is one of the awards that will be presented at the opening of Molly Morpeth Canaday Award.

Is there a separate entry form for the Youth Art Award?

No, it is the same online form. All youth are judged on the same platform as the rest of the artists. Artists can indicate if they would like to be considered for the Youth Award on the entry form.
The guest judge chooses the Youth Award Art winner. A youth artist may win the major award (or runner up award), which will take priority over a youth art award win.

If I am asked to send my work in, how do I package it?

Keep in mind that:
- Your work will be unpacked by people who haven’t seen what is inside.
- Artwork packaging will be re-used where able.
- For better protection and tape adhesion, bubbles on bubble wrap should face outwards.
- Avoid making large sheets of bubble wrap out of small sheets of bubble wrap UNLESS it is easily re-usable (i.e. time saving cut marks are clearly visible).
- Similarly, avoid making “Frankenstein” boxes that require extensive re-piecing.
- Avoid putting artwork faces in contact with packaging materials that are to be cut open.
- Ensure that package edges are well sealed.
- Make opening procedure clear – dash cut-lines, “open here” etc are good.
