What is the Hudgens Prize?
A stunning cash award of $50,000 and an invitation for a solo exhibition for one artist, the Hudgens Prize is one of the largest art awards given in the entire nation, and is open only to Georgia residents. The four Finalists were chosen from a pool of 370 applicants by a jury of curators from three top art institutions.
The winner will be announced at the Award Ceremony on August 10th. For information about this and other Hudgens Prize Programs, visit the Hudgens Prize page.
