Castlemaine Art Museum is pleased to announce the fourth Experimental Print Prize (EPP). Established in 2019, the biennial prize is open to artists residing in Victoria. Initiated and funded originally by Michael Rigg, the prize now evolves to a platform supported by many. Through their generous support, three prizes are offered: $10,000, $5,000 and $3,000 for an emerging artist. There is a strong tradition of printmaking in Victoria and the EPP seeks to foster new directions in the field, through both the exhibition of shortlisted artists and awarding of prizes. Unique amongst printmaking prizes, EPP recognises that experimentation and risk are essential to art.

The Office of Arts and Culture presents an ongoing series of temporary public interventions through the Experiments in Public Art program which serves as a city-wide laboratory expanding the potential of public art. Unlike a traditional public art commission, Experiments in Public Art projects are as much an experiment for the community as they are opportunities for artists to work within unconventional parameters. Participating artists are selected, in part, by incorporating concepts and materials that extend beyond the notion of traditional public art.
