Youth Art Award
The Waverley Council 2008 Youth Art Award (June 12-22) is open to all residents and students in the Eastern Suburbs aged from 12 to 25 years.

And it’s definitely worth the effort with $2000 in prize money to be won. Better still, entry in the award offers an opportunity for young local artists to exhibit their works in the Bondi Pavilion gallery.

For more information or entry forms, call 8362 3400 or check out the council website at www.waverley.nsw.gov.au/info/pavilion/artaward
