Any member of the Burnside Painting Group who has not won any monetary prizes within the previous 12 months is eligible to win the annual Phyllis Kopp Award when entering artworks in our Annual Exhibition (held during SALA in August).
The winner is the 'peoples' favourite', as determined by popular vote of viewers/visitors of our Annual Exhibition. A cash prize ($100) is awarded to the winner, along with an award certificate to recognise achievement.
