Calling all tapestry weavers. It is time again for The Australian Tapestry Workshop’s bi-annual tapestry competition. Tapestry artists are invited world wide to submit small scale hand-woven tapestries up to 40 x 40 x 3cms. The judges are looking for ‘an expressive use of tapestry through materials, concept, colour and design.’

 

The Kate Derum award is for established weavers and has a prize of $5,000 and the Irene Davies Award is for early career weavers with $1000 prize. More importantly all those shortlisted will be exhibited at The Australian Tapestry Workshop and you can price them if you would like them to be for sale. To enter visit www.austapestry.com.au
