The Classic Motoring Movement – Art & Photography Prizes

Motors & Masterpieces is proud to unveil the inaugural Art and Photography Prize sections of festivities, with the pre-eminent automotive event set to take over the Melbourne Showgrounds from November 22 to 24, 2024.

The subject matter for prospective entrants is simply ‘The Classic Motoring Movement’, and it is recommended that entries attempt to fit into one of the event’s 10 themes, with selected pieces displayed at the event in the relevant area.

Separate awards are available in both the artwork and photography divisions, with the first prize for each being $4,000, while each runner-up will receive $1,000.

All entries remain the property of the entrants, however, Motors & Masterpieces reserves the right to use the winning and runner-up entries as promotional materials for the 2025 event, with due recognition given. Further to this, the entrants cannot use these works for other commercial purposes.

The selection of winners will be made by a panel of prominent individuals from the Australian art and cultural scene, with their decision final and uncontestable.

All entries must be made right here on the Motors & Masterpieces website's Art & Photography Competition Entry Page no later than October 18th, 2024.

Selected entries must be made available to the event organisers at the Melbourne Showgrounds on 21 November 2024, with details to be provided beforehand.
