The Incinerator Art Award is Incinerator Gallery’s annual contemporary art prize featuring 28 artworks by shortlisted artists from across Australia, inspired by the theme of art for social change.

Now in its ninth year, the award pays homage to Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin, who believed that art and architecture practices are ethical enterprises that should aim to bring about positive social change.

With a total prize pool of $12,000, the Incinerator Art Award offers three prestigious awards, including the $10,000 Incinerator Art Award, the $1,000 Moonee Valley Mayoral Award and the $1,000 People’s Choice Award.

While at the gallery, you can vote for the $1,000 People’s Choice Award, with the winner announced on Friday, 24 November.
