The 2016 Overland NUW Fair Australia Prize

July 17, 2016

About the prize

This year, the Fair Australia Prize is actually five $4000 prizes:

  • one for fiction (up to 3000 words)
  • one for essay (up to 3000 words)
  • one for poetry (up to 88 lines)
  • one for graphic or cartoon (180 mm wide by 255 mm high), and
  • one for the best entry by an NUW member (industrial or community)

The prize encourages artists and writers of fiction, poetry and essays to be part of setting a new agenda for our future. Winning entries will be published in a special Fair Australia supplement in Overland 225, to be launched in Melbourne in early December.

Entry to the Fair Australia Prize is free. Please indicate on the entry form (accessed via one of the category links below) if you are a member of the National Union of Workers.

Competition closes 11.59 pm, 17 July 2016.

Please note: Peril provides these details as a courtesy, but we’re not in charge of the events, so please don’t harrass us if the Facebook page is down for a particular event – unless we make that really really clear, in which case you’ll know because we’ll probably be hounding to you come along.

We’re free to access and want to keep it that way. If you want to ensure Asian Australian voices – in all their diversity and complexity – continue to be heard, please consider making a donation.
