The Threadneedle Prize For Painting and Sculpture - Prizes

Prizes

There are eight prizes totalling £46,000. The two major prizes available are the Threadneedle Prize and the Visitor’ Choice Prize. In 2012 the Threadneedle Prize was increased from £25,000 to £30,000 making it the largest prize for single work of art in the UK. For the Threadneedle Prize, a panel of selectors shortlist six works and then choose the winner of the £30,000 prize. The Visitors’ Choice Prize, worth £10,000, was introduced in 2010 and is voted for by the visitors of the exhibition. Two finalists for the Visitors' Choice Prize are awarded £500. Each of the five finalists for the Threadneedle Prize receives £1,000.
