The Creative Australia National Arts and Disability Awards celebrate the work and achievements of d/Deaf artists and artists with disability. The Awards acknowledge the contribution these artists have made to the creative arts and cultural life of the nation.

Award categories

  • The National Arts and Disability Award (Established) celebrates the achievements of an established Australian artist whose outstanding and sustained contribution to their chosen field of arts practice over many years has been recognised nationally or internationally. The recipient of this award will receive $50,000.
  • The National Arts and Disability Award (Early Career) recognises an Australian artist early in their practice who has made an outstanding contribution to their chosen field of practice. The recipients of this award will receive $20,000.

We will offer a second Early Career Award in 2024, with thanks to Creative Australia and its employees through the Workplace Giving program.

The Awards are decided by the Australia Council (the governing Board of Creative Australia), informed by key industry advisors.

Nominations close: Tuesday 9 July 2024 (3pm AEST)
