We are a small NE Vic country football club taking on a huge and different project: An art and photgraphy exhibition/competition: SPARTA 2010. The only criterion is that the subject matter of works must depict some aspect of sport. Any suggestions as to how to attract entries...we have mustered $1500 worth of prize money (Just a pittance for you proffessional artists, I know, but I did say we were small...)

Submit 'calls for artists' (for free) on

Arts Connect: http://www.artsconnect.com.au/callforartists/index.htm and
Competions for Artists: http://www.competitionsforartists.com/

$1500 is OK as long as you aren't asking too much for an entry fee and as long as the prize isn't acquisitive.

That sounds fine. You could also get it listed on http://www.artprizedatabase.com.au/
and provide us with details and a link in the Art Competitions section.
You could also list it in the Competitions section of www.australianartforum.com
Good Luck

In that case I think $1500 will still draw plenty of entries for you.

Good luck.

I think that's fine. Do you have a website? So that I can take a look on it or just update here what happen.
