The regional tour of the Archibald Prize 2021 finalists concludes at the Manning Regional Art Gallery.

Australia's favourite portrait prize, the annual Archibald Prize is eagerly anticipated by artists and audiences alike.

First awarded in 1921, it is one of Australia's oldest and most prestigious art awards. Judged by the trustees of the Art Gallery of NSW and awarded to the best portrait painting, the Archibald Prize exhibition is a who's who of Australian culture - from politicians to celebrities, sporting heroes to artists.

The Archibald Prize 2021 regional tour includes 51 of the total 52 works. (Jaye Early’s portrait Masato Takasaka, is not on display).

The Manning Regional Art Gallery is the last regional Gallery on the tour so this is your last chance to see the amazing exhibition!

Open Tuesday to Sunday - 10am to 5pm (Thursday until 7pm)
