Nominees 2016
This year we received 68 nominations in total. The aim of course, isn’t just to receive more nominations; we’re interested in quality and in spread across the categories, and in seeing a wider variety of organisations putting their hands up for an award. So it’s worth noting the increased interest in the Engagement Programs category and in the number of submissions from artist-run galleries and galleries with less than two paid staff. We have also seen an increase in the number of nominations from larger institutions in both the Engagement and Exhibition Programs categories.
