The Swan Hill Print & Drawing Acquisitive Awards is a biennial national award celebrating excellence in contemporary Australian printmaking and drawing. Open to artists across Australia, the prize showcases a diverse selection of works and contributes to building the Art Gallery of Swan Hill’s permanent collection.
Two acquisitive awards are presented—one for print and one for drawing—with selected works acquired into the collection. Finalists are exhibited in a major group exhibition, offering national exposure for both emerging and established artists.
Artists may submit multiple entries, with works required to have been created after June 2024.
Finalists announced 12 June 2026, with the exhibition launch and winners announced on 1 August 2026.
