Artists are being invited to apply for a new Liverpool Sculpture Prize, which would see their work displayed for twelve months with a prize fee of £2500.
Liverpool Sculpture Prize, created and managed by Liverpool BID Company and Liverpool Parish Church, is open to any sculptor working and living in the UK. The call for entries opens today, Thursday 8 February, and is open until 8 April 2024. A judging panel, featuring people from within the arts, business and creative communities, will decide the winning entry, which will be unveiled to the public in June 2024.
The work will be displayed at Liverpool Parish Church, either on the plinth on Chapel Street, or in the church gardens overlooking Liverpool’s waterfront. The plinth was the site of Brian Burgess’s ‘Christ on a Donkey’ and The Liverpool Plinth from 2018 – 2023. In the gardens at Liverpool Parish Church, various works have also been installed including Ranti Bam as part of Liverpool Biennial.
Applications are open now until 8 April – see here for details
