Art Prize of the Ettlingen Museum Society

Since 2002 the museum society has been offering a prize for regional artists every two years. Initially launched as the "Pamina Art Prize", this regional limitation was abandoned in 2008. Since then, artists from all over Baden, Alsace and Palatinate have been invited to apply. An art prize (€ 2,500) and a promotion prize for young artists (€ 500) are awarded every two years.

The prize money is donated by the Ettlingen municipal utility. Previous winners with year of award:
