CITY OF FREMANTLE BACKS FIPP

The City of Fremantle has allocated one of its Community Development Grants for 2013 to the promotion and running of the awards. This grant of $10,000 (plus GST) will be used for marketing, printing and website maintenance in an effort to beat last year’s incredible success of the competition.

“We feel that the Fremantle International Portrait Prize will keep the city’s association with world-class photography alive and well,” Professor Beilin said.
