Yellow™ Art Awards

Entry dates for this year’s competition have not been finalised. Check back for updates.

Capture the spirit of your region. Show us what you love about where you live.

The national winner will win $20,000 and in each region the winner will receive $2,000, first runner up $1,000 and second runner up $500.

It’s up to you. You can create your artwork on paper, canvas, board or a combination of these. Your entry can be a painting, drawing, digital or collage. You can use photography as part of a mixed media or collage work as long as it’s your original photograph. Computer graphics and scanned images are a-OK only if you have created them.

Your entry must be square because the winning artwork will appear on the White pages cover in a square frame – you don’t want us cropping your work of art now do you? There is no limit on maximum size. And remember, keep it PG rated. Your artwork must be suitable for publication on the cover of the White pages®.

All of the artworks are judged by a selection of respected NZ art experts. They will select three finalists in each region and these finalists will be put forward for public vote. The artwork that receives the most votes is the winner.
