Emerging Artist: Award, Exhibition and Arts Program

Emerging Artist Award 2025 - exhibition 10-18 October 2025

The City of South Perth's biggest cultural event returns in 2025, providing a platform for young and early-career artists to showcase their talents, unlock professional opportunities and connect with the community. The Emerging Artist Exhibition and Arts Program is an opportunity to celebrate art and immerse in creativity.

Artwork entries have now closed. Finalists will be notified of the outcome of their submission by 15 September.

The exhibition runs from Friday 10 October to Saturday 18 October 2025, with a range of art program events on during this period.


Our Emerging Artist Arts Program is a great way for the community to get involved and celebrate art. It's also an opportunity for emerging and professional artists to meet peers, discuss work, and participate in an open discussion about the arts as a practice and profession. 

Bookings are required so see below for details and to sign up.
