In 2025, The Lanyon Art Prize invites artists from the ACT and region to submit works that respond to Lanyon Homestead. Through their response, artists can explore what Lanyon Homestead means within the broader context of Canberra’s past, present and future.
The purpose of the selected works is to inspire contemporary views and storytelling about Lanyon and its surrounds – its landscape, local and regional context, the First Nations and non-First Nations people who have lived and worked here, tangible and intangible heritage, the collection of objects, and the living heritage of the gardens and its pastoral setting which is still a working farm. Finalist’s works will be exhibited in select locations on the property to create an immersive experience
The Lanyon Art Prize is a regional, non-acquisitive prize and exhibition with all works available for sale. It is open to works by artists, musicians, craftspeople and designers aged 18 years and over who are a resident of the ACT or the surrounding Canberra region, including Bega, Eurobodalla, Hilltops, Goulburn Mulwaree, Queanbeyan-Palerang, Snowy Monaro, Upper Lachlan and Yass Valley.
