VIVA Awards

The VIVA Awards are two $12,000 prizes, granted annually to British Columbian mid-career artists chosen for "outstanding achievement and commitment" by the Jack and Doris Shadbolt Foundation.[1] The awards are presented by the Vancouver Art Gallery in conjunction with the Alvin Balkind Curator's Prize and the Audain Prize for Lifetime Achievement.[2]
