Portrait of a Senior Territorian Art Award
The Annual Portrait of a Senior Territorian Award—sponsored by the Northern Territory Government in partnership with Tactile Arts—is a celebration of the lives, stories, and contributions of senior Territorians, recognising their impact on our community. Through excellence in visual art and creative storytelling—including the popular Selfie with a Senior Award—we honour the richness of experience and connection shared across generations.
This year, 29 outstanding finalist works are on display, each capturing the spirit, strength, and individuality of senior Territorians. We invite you to explore the exhibition, reflect on these powerful portraits, and celebrate the technical expertise and dedication behind them.
