The annual Walkley Awards, under the supervision of Walkley Foundation for Journalism, are presented in Australia to give recognition and reward excellence in journalism covering all media including print, television, radio, photography and online media. It can be considered as the Australian equivalent of the Pulitzer Prize.

This is a prestigious exhibition of outstanding Australian press photography from daily life and photographic essays to portraiture and sports. The Nikon Walkley Photographic Awards will recognize excellence in Australian press photography.
There are more than 1000 photographers judged for selection in the awards each year. And this exhibition will showcase more than 100 works by Australia’s best photojournalists chosen for the awards. 

Heartbreak and triumph, jubilation and devastation: this event displays the gigantic moments of the year in news as seen through the lens of Australia’s most talented and creative press photographers.
