To celebrate and support the Contemporary Wearables ’15 Biennial Jewellery Award & Exhibition the Toowoomba Gallery Society Inc is giving the public a chance to win $1000.00!

The Contemporary Wearables Biennial Jewellery Award and Exhibition was the vision of the Toowoomba Gallery Society and it was particularly driven by the passion of Life Member, former President, Treasurer and Secretary Sonia Richards. Toowoomba Gallery Society Inc. is proud to bring to fruition a further vision of Mrs Richards this year with the establishment of The Mathias Richards People's Choice Award. Mrs Richards has generously donated $5000.00 to the Society for this project. $4000.00 will be presented to the artist whose work receives the most votes and a further $1000.00 will be awarded to one of the people who voted for it, drawn at random at a special event. 

To be in the running, simply go along to The Gallery Shop and cast a vote for your favourite piece in the exhibition (terms and conditions apply, see in store for details). 

Winners will be announced 11 October during a Toowoomba Gallery Society hosted event at Toowoomba Regional Art Gallery.
