Balcon Group is proud and excited to be the official Program Partner for the Archibald Prize 2022.

The annual Archibald Prize is eagerly anticipated by artists and audience alike. 

Judged by the trustees of the Art Gallery of NSW, the prize is awarded to the best portrait painting. Since 1921 it has highlighted figures from all walks of life, from famous faces to local heroes, reflecting back to us the stories of our times.

The Archibald Prize represents Australia’s oldest and most prestigious art award and will be shown exclusively in Victoria at Bunjil Place.

Bunjil Place has a range of tour packages and special events available, including guided tours, a high tea experience and their learning and education suite.

There are limited spots available, so visit their website to book your session.
