This exhibition features 25 works by shortlisted finalists who entered the award in the hope of winning one of the three categories:

- Bell Bay Aluminium People’s Choice Award, and the $1,500
- Zonta International (District 23, Area 5) Emerging Artist Prize
The 2022 winner, Eddie James, is joining the distinguished prize-winner alumni amongst whom include: Anne Morrison (2019), Sarah Rhodes (2020) and Georgia Spain (2021).
