A cross-disciplinary exhibition of selected works by artists and designers across the country who are engaged with the natural world, environmental renewal, regeneration and the circular economy. In its inaugural year, the award celebrates contemporary art and design practices that are socially engaged, environmentally aware and that seek to contribute to positive change.

The Prize is an inclusive and diverse exhibition that celebrates the vibrancy of the arts and design community within and beyond the Northern Beaches and this year will be presented across three Northern Beaches’ arts venues: Manly Art Gallery & Museum; Curl Curl Creative Space and the Mona Vale Pop Up Gallery from Friday 12 November - Sunday 12 December 2021, Tuesday - Sunday 10am - 5pm.

This year the Prize judges are internationally renowned artist Euan Macleod; artist, designer and curator Liane Rossler; and CEO and Artistic Director of the Australian Design Centre, Lisa Cahill.
