ABOUT THE EXHIBITIONS 
The Blake Prize has challenged artists to explore spirituality and religion through contemporary art since 1951. Liverpool Powerhouse (formerly Casula Powerhouse) has been home to the prize since 2016, situated in one of Australia’s most culturally and linguistically diverse communities, with residents representing over 150 birthplaces and more than 140 languages. The Blake Prize continues to provide a vital space for conversations about the role and impact of spirituality, religion, and belief in shaping life in Australia today. 


The Blake Poetry Prize is presented in partnership with WestWords, Western Sydney Centre for Writing. This open poetry prize challenges poets, both national and international, to engage in conversations concerning faith, spirituality, religion and/or belief. 


Under 16s are to be accompanied by an adult.
