Henley Festival is delighted to announce the launch of a brand new prize rewarding trailblazing emerging talent in the visual arts space. The award forms part of Henley Festival’s charitable mission: to support the next generation of talent through its RISE programme.
The Prize will be awarded to outstanding emerging visual artists who are in their early stages of their career or are still establishing a reputation as an artist amongst art curators, buyers and critics.
Three finalists will be selected, with a first prize of £1000 and two runners-up prizes of £500 each. The three finalists will also get to exhibit their work at the Audi High RISE Gallery at Henley Festival 2025, which will take place from 9-13 July. The Festival is renowned for pioneering spectacular festival art, annually featuring a stunning array of paintings, prints, sculptures, drawings and so much more, transforming the scenic Thames riverside into an immersive outdoor gallery.
