Exhibitions on Screen | The Lester Prize for Portraiture

The Lester Prize is one of Australia’s most prestigious awards for portraiture. It celebrates the talents of artists and engages the community. 

This screening debuts the finalists for this year’s Lester Prize, chosen from nearly 1,000 entries vying for the coveted award.

The Lester Prize 2024 digital exhibition will be showcased daily on the City of Perth Forrest Place Arts Screen from August 5 to November 17 and complements the physical exhibition at WA Museum Boola Bardip, which runs from September 13 to November 17, 2024

The Northbridge Piazza screen hosts a variety of screenings, from formal events like feature films, complete with bean bag seating for viewers, to more casual gatherings for sporting events and exhibitions (such as this screening). Here, visitors can relax on the lawn, savour the renowned culinary delights of Northbridge, or enjoy a stroll along James Street, taking in the vibrant artwork.
