The Hopper Prize was established in order to increase the recognition of artwork created by artists and photographers. The organization’s aim is to advance artists’ careers by providing them with unrestricted financial support that is coupled with a platform for increased visibility. The Hopper Prize accepts submissions twice a year via an open call.

When submitting your work, you will have the option to opt-in to be considered for possible Instagram features on The Hopper Prize feed @hopperprize, where they currently reach an audience of over 74k.
