Fremantle Print Award

The Fremantle Print Award is Australia's longest-running, most prestigious and largest printmaking award, and is awarded by the Fremantle Arts Centre, who also acquire the winning work.[1][2] The award was established in 1976 with the support of Shell Australia. This partnership continued until 2006.

With acquisitive and non-acquisitive awards the prize money totals A$22,000 as of 2021, with $16,000 for the first place, and $6,000 for second. The awards were put on hiatus for 2020, due to COVID-19. Beginning in 2022, the awards will be held every two years.

Several noted Australian artists have been recipients of the award including David Rose in 1978 and Mike Parr in 1990.[3]
