Applications are now open for the Australian Centre’s cultural awards.
The Kate Challis RAKA Award
This $25,000 award is offered in a five-year cycle with a different area of the arts – creative prose, drama, the visual arts, scriptwriting and poetry. In 2010, the prize will be awarded to an Indigenous poet for work published between January 2005 and January 2010. The artist must be an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander.
Applications close Friday 18 June 2010. For guidelines, or to enter or nominate a poet, please visit the website.
The Peter Blazey Fellowship
The Fellowship is awarded annually to writers in the non-fiction fields of biography, autobiography and life writing and is intended to further a work in progress. Applications will be judged on literary merit, and the winner will be supported in his or her work by a cash prize of $15 000, as well as a one-month writer-in-residency at the Australian Centre, based at the University of Melbourne.
Applications close Friday 18 June 2010. For guidelines and more information, please visit the website.
