glover prize 2026

The John Glover Art Prize (Glover Prize) is an annual award for landscape paintings of Tasmania awarded by The John Glover Society Inc. The entered work must be a titled landscape painting of Tasmania and does not have to have been painted in Tasmania. The term ‘landscape’ is to be understood broadly and is not intended as a limitation on approach, for example, seascapes and cityscapes are acceptable within the definition.

The term ‘painting’ is to be understood broadly. Any two-dimensional medium is accepted, however photography, film, and digitally rendered work without a painterly element is excluded. The entered work must be new (completed within the previous 12 months), be the absolute property of the Artist, and must not have been shown previously or entered in any other competition.

The finished artwork, including the frame, must be no larger than 190 (height) x 190 (width) centimetres. An Artist may enter several artworks, but each entry must be accompanied by a separate entry form and fee with all relevant support material.
