Background and description

The Dreaming Award was established in 2012 by the Australia Council for the Arts "to support an inspirational young artist aged 18-26 years to create a major body of work through mentoring and partnerships.[1] The mentor/partner will be another established professional artist or arts institution nominated by the artist".[2]

As of 2022 the Dreaming Award is one of four categories awarded at the First Nations Arts Awards (formerly National Indigenous Arts Awards)[2] on 27 May each year, on the anniversary of the 1967 referendum.[3] The major award is the Red Ochre Award for lifetime achievement.[2]
