Mosman Art Gallery and The Balnaves Foundation are proud to announce the launch of The Neil Balnaves Fellowship in honour of the late Neil Balnaves, a major initiative providing $80,000 biennially to support the development of a significant piece of research or creative endeavour over a one-year period.
Offered in 2025 and again in 2027, each winning project must engage with Mosman’s artistic heritage and/or The Balnaves Gift to be selected and will go on to be included in the Mosman Art Gallery program.
Applications opened for six weeks from Monday 18 August until 29 September, with the first Fellowship to be awarded late 2025. The second Fellowship will be awarded in 2027 with application dates to be announced.
Open to artists, curators, historians and writers, the Fellowship encourages a range of projects to be submitted including artwork, exhibition, research project or text. The Neil Balnaves Fellowship offers a unique and critical opportunity for creative practitioners to work closely alongside Mosman Art Gallery.
The late Neil Balnaves founded The Balnaves Foundation in 2006 to create a pathway for intergenerational giving to help create a better Australia through art, education and medicine.
