Entries for the Howard Drawing Award for 2025 are now open!

The Howard Tanner is a SCEGGS special award for Drawing. It is presented on Speech Night by Ms Allum.

We encourage all students to submit work in any drawing media on any subject and on any scale.

Eligible entrants are students in Years 7 to 11.

We are especially interested to see students explore forms of experimental and expanded drawing. Digital drawings are also being accepted this year but in the spirit of the prize’s intentions, please refrain from submitting work created with AI.

An exhibition of selected finalist’s drawings will be displayed in JF1 in Term 4.

Here are some examples from SCEGGS students past and present:

Students can hand in up to 3 drawings to Ms Jackson in the Visual Arts staffroom at any time by the second Friday of Term 4, 24 October by 9.00am.

Please make sure your name and your year is clearly marked on the back of your work.

Looking forward to seeing your great work!
