The Talburac Art Prize is your invitation to be inspired, unlock your creative excellence and energise our vibrant arts community. Hosted at Hoop Gallery, it’s a dynamic platform to elevate your talent, spark fresh perspectives, and advance artistic careers.

​Ron Talbot, a founding member of Hoop Gallery, is a passionate advocate for the power of creativity to enrich community life and nurture lifelong learning.

The ‘Talburac Art Prize’ was made possible through his generous philanthropic donation.

As a dedicated artist with over 25 years in the arts, Ron has continually worked to create opportunities for artists within the creative sector.

The award reflects the ongoing support of Ron, Andre and the Talbot family to supporting artists in striving for excellence and sharing their dynamic, innovative artworks – now and into the future – so the community can celebrate their talent and be inspired through the ‘Talburac Art Prize’ exhibitions at Hoop Gallery.
