About the A+C Awards

The A+C Awards were set up in 2003 to celebrate the exceptional quality of art and scholarship in religious art and design in the UK; they are open to all faiths.

We have two Awards for Art in a Religious Context: one for a permanent commission within the building or grounds of a place of worship in the UK (£3,000); and one for a temporary installation or exhibition within the building or grounds of a place of worship in the UK.

We also give a Book Award for an outstanding contribution to the public understanding of the relationship between faith and art.

The 2025–6 Awards are currently being judged.
