Email us – media@newsofthearea.com.au The Scotts Head Art Prize not only celebrates the rich artistic heritage of the region but also provides a platform for local artists to gain recognition and exposure within the community. This year’s Scotts Head Art Prize is a rejuvenation of the event, once conducted annually, that has not been held for a number of years. Kristin Hardiman and fellow artists Kerrie Swan and Tracey Bowden are the driving force behind re-establishing the event. “We are getting this event up and running again, hoping to unite the community, especially the creative community that we have in and around Scotts Head. “There are so many artists in the district who have not connected with other artists and we would love to bring these creatives together and we think the Art Prize event is a step toward achieving that.” By Mick BIRTLES
