Ongoing success led to the expansion of Sculpture by the Bay in 2019 to include a Small Sculpture Prize. The Committee partnered with Christian Fletcher Gallery in Dunsborough for the display of the Small Sculpture Prize exhibition with the opportunity to exhibit up to 50 works.
Sponsorship of awards for both exhibitions is provided by individual community members, and local businesses who have a strong belief in the importance of the event for the community, as well as supporting artists in their creative endeavours. Without the commitment to Sculpture by the Bay from our sponsors, it would not be possible for the event to be so successful.
