the 2021 good stuff awards are open

Sound the alarm – the frankie Good Stuff awards are back! There’s so much creative talent floating around Australia and New Zealand, and we can't wait to show those new (and returning) faces a whole lot of love.  

We started the Good Stuff awards in 2017 to give top-notch artists, photographers, crafters, designers, entrepreneurs, writers, musicians, podcast makers and socially minded folk a leg up in the world, and that's still our aim today. It doesn’t matter what stage of the creative journey you’re at, either – if there’s a project you’re proud of, chances are we want to see/hear/experience it. Plus, entry is totally free.

What do you get for entering? Well, aside from a big high five from us, you could very well end up a Good Stuff award winner in your chosen category. Taking home the gong gets you a feature in issue 104 of frankie, a year’s subscription to the magazine and a one-on-one mentoring session with one of our excellent judges.

Speaking of which, you might like to meet this year’s judging panel, which includes filmmaker Maya Newell, fashion designer Kristy Barber of Kuwaii, presenter Myf Warhurst and a bunch of other excellent people. So don’t be shy! Hotfoot it over to the categories page to figure out where your work fits best, then submit your entry before 9am July 12th, 2021.
