Artshow@Radford

The Radford College Parents & Friends Association is thrilled to announce that tickets are now on sale for the 2025 Artshow@Radford Gala Opening Night.

Please join us as we celebrate these amazing works and the many artists who will exhibit works in a wide range of media: oils, watercolours, digital media, photography, sculpture, ceramics, woodwork and more. These pieces will be for sale. This will be the 41st year that the Radford Art Show has celebrated the work of local and regional artists, as well as student art.

Kacy Grainger, founder of Grainger Gallery, is our guest judge this year. Kacy owns the prominent art space that is located in the revitalised Dairy Road Precinct of Fyshwick. Established in early 2020, Grainger Gallery showcases a diverse range of artworks from nationally renowned and emerging artists. The gallery is dedicated to fostering a personal connection between patrons and artists, emphasising the importance of art as an expression of identity and meaningful addition to one's life. As an accomplished artist herself, with a son who has also pursued a career as an artist, Kacy is dedicated to nurturing the local art scene and young emerging artists. This personal approach to gallery management has made Grainger Gallery a significant cultural institution in Canberra.

Kacy will present the judge awards to artists at the Gala Opening. The prizes include:

  • First prize - $2000.
  • Second prize - $1000.
  • Emerging Artist - $500.

The Student Awards will be awarded at 12.00 pm on Sunday, 18 May.

The People’s Choice Awards will be awarded at the conclusion of the exhibition.
