The Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (APB) has announced the 5th Balearic Island painting and photography competition. The theme of the competition centres on the Islands’ public ports and lighthouses, and has been organised in conjunction with the Palma de Majorca Fine Arts Society.
The competition is open to all artists and photographers. The subject matter must be related to Balearic Islands’ lighthouses and the ports of Palma, Alcudia, Mahon, Ibiza and La Savina, which are all managed by the APB.
There are three different categories, watercolours, other painting techniques, and photography. The prize money, which has been donated by the APB, stands at almost €11,000 for the different categories. Entries must be presented from 13th-31st October at the APB ports of Palma, Alcudia, Mahon, Ibiza or La Savina.
A shortlist will then be put together, based on the artistic quality and presentation of the entries. The selected works will be put on display in different exhibition areas which are yet to be established.
