ASV Exhibition Program 2021
Annual and Awards Exhibition 2 - 15 June at the Victorian Artists Society 430 Albert St, East Melbourne VIC 3002, Indoor works
Port of Sale Victoria Sculpture Prize 12 to 14 Nov
A large internal and external exhibition with major and minor sculpture acquisition prizes on offer.
Tina Wentcher
The Tina Wentcher Prize and its method of judging was a bequest of sculptor Tina Wentcher who died in 1974. For the past 20 or so years it has alternated with the Andor Meszaros Prize. The Tina Wentcher medallion made by Michael Meszaros was first offered as part of the prize in 2001. In recent years the prize conditions have been changed to encourage sculptors with less than 10 years experience rather than an age based system. The ASV invites all emerging sculptors including non-members to submit an entry for this prize. The Tina Wentcher Medallion will be judged by a panel of three – an external judge, the president of the ASV and another member of the ASV.

Meetings, Workshops and Activities
Meetings and workshops.
There's plenty happening and plenty coming up - enjoy!
19 May ASV committee meeting.
Our committee meetings always go accompanied with wine and (gf) pizza or nibbles ( and a bit of social chatting ) . Everyone is invited to attend, as it is a great way to share ideas, and get to know what the association is about, what we do, how we do it, and why. And where input may be needed. We are sure there are some great ideas out there that just don’t reach us.
Come along, either in person, or zoom in. The agenda will be sent out in the week before, so any ideas, send them to John!
