How does the competition work?

Theme: Focus on Sandgate
Please submit artworks that reflect "our seaside location, our people or our festival".
Eg: boating, ocean, the Bluewater Festival (which is in it's 15th year), local icons, local events, Queensland's 150th, yacht racing, bird or sea life, etc...

Works of an Exhibition quality can be submitted in three categories:
Painting, Photography or 3 Dimensional Art (3D includes sculpture, jewellery, pottery, etc.).

We are currently seeking prize sponsorship and there will be a 1st, 2nd and 3rd Prize awarded to outstanding pieces of art, spanning all categories. The Competition will be judged by a "people's choice" vote at the exhibition opening event, plus our annual children's colouring in competition will also be on display and judged.
