    The Art for Change Prize 2024, presented by M&C Saatchi Group in collaboration with Saatchi Gallery, is an esteemed international art competition that seeks to uncover and promote emerging artistic talent. This year’s theme, "Tomorrow’ing: Visions of a better future," encourages artists to explore and depict their hopes and visions for a brighter, more sustainable world. By focusing on pressing global issues, the prize aims to inspire artists to act as beacons of hope, using their creativity to highlight and address these challenges. The competition is an excellent opportunity for artists to engage with a broad audience and contribute to meaningful social dialogue through their art.

    Open to emerging artists aged 18 or over and within the first five years of their artistic career, the Art for Change Prize 2024 accepts a diverse range of media, including painting, drawing, illustration, photography, collage, 2D mixed-media, video, or film. This inclusivity ensures a wide array of creative expressions and perspectives, enriching the competition and its impact. The organizers aim to celebrate the transformative power of art and its role in envisioning a better future, encouraging participants to submit works that have been executed since January 1, 2021, and that can be shipped and installed for exhibition.

    The competition offers significant rewards, with a total prize fund of £20,000. This fund is distributed among six regional winners, with five artists each receiving £2,000 and one overall winner being awarded £10,000. Beyond the monetary prizes, winning artists gain invaluable exposure by exhibiting their works at the prestigious Saatchi Gallery in London, a renowned institution in the contemporary art world. This exhibition, running from November 2024 to January 2025, not only highlights the winners’ contributions but also fosters a global conversation about the role of art in addressing and solving societal issues. Through this platform, the Art for Change Prize amplifies the voices of emerging artists and underscores the significance of creativity in shaping a better tomorrow.
