The Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize is an annual open exhibition dedicated to drawing. The Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize and exhibition has an established reputation for its commitment to promoting excellence in, and celebrating the breadth of, contemporary drawing practice. This open exhibition is a platform for drawing practitioners to showcase their work alongside other leading contemporary artists and makers in the field with the exhibition launched in London and touring widely in the UK. In offering emerging, mid-career and established artists and makers an influential platform to exhibit their drawings, this longstanding exhibition project has developed new insights into the role and value of drawing in creative practice today. The exhibition is selected from a submission of original artworks by an annually appointed Selection Panel.

Artists and drawing practitioners worldwide are invited to submit up to three drawings for consideration by the distinguished Selection Panel.
