Aspiring Art Prize

Aspiring Art Prize - 8th - 11th January 2027

Located in the picturesque town of Wanaka, the Craigs Aspiring Art Prize is the primary fundraiser for Holy Family Catholic School. Proudly sponsored by Craigs Investment Partners, our annual event features a $15,000 acquisition prize and various community-sponsored awards. It attracts artists from across New Zealand, fostering and encouraging their talents while establishing itself as a nationally recognised art award.

The event opens with a vibrant Opening Night (8th Jan) followed by a three-day public exhibition (9-11 Jan) giving art lovers the chance to experience an inspiring showcase of work in person.

Entries open 1st October 2026 and close 1st November 2026
