In 2023 Achieve Australia partnered with Accessible Arts to introduce the Artful Art Prize, a national art competition open to all Australian residents, regardless of ability, age, or
skill level. More than just an art contest, this initiative champions inclusivity and
proves that talent knows no limits. The Artful Art Prize received an impressive 640 submissions, with 60 winners selected across six categories: painting, drawing, 3-D, photography, mixed media, and textiles. The competition’s success lies not only
in the diversity of submissions but in the belief that every artist, regardless of ability, can contribute to a more colourful and united society.
