The Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize has an established reputation as the UK’s most important annual open exhibition for drawing. Founded in 1994 by artist and Professor, Anita Taylor, who is currently Dean of Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design at the University of Dundee, the annual Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize celebrates talent and excellence in current drawing practice. The exhibition provides an important platform for artists, designers, makers and other drawing practitioners as a catalyst within their careers, and champions the role, breadth, and value of drawing in creative practice today. The Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize is generously supported by the Trinity Buoy Wharf Trust, with 2024 the 7th year of their generous support for the annual open exhibition, and the 30th exhibition since the project was founded in 1994.
