Majella Clancy – John Moores Painting Prize 2025

QSS artist Majella Clancy has been selected as part of the John Moores Painting Prize exhibition.

As one of the UK’s most prestigious contemporary painting prizes, the exhibition returns to the Walker Art Gallery in September 2025.

‘Supporting artists from all over the UK – whether they’re undiscovered, emerging or established in their careers – the Prize provides a platform for artists to inspire, disrupt and challenge the British painting scene today. Showcasing the very latest in painting across the UK, the competition culminates in a major exhibition every two years in Liverpool.’

71 artists were selected from over 3,000 entries. The exhibition will take place at the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool from 6 September 2025 – 1 March 2026.
