The Louis-Comtois Award, created in 1991 by the Contemporary Art Galleries Association (AGAC) and jointly administered with the Ville de Montréal, supports and promotes the work of a mid-career artist who has distinguished themselves in the field of contemporary art in Montreal over the past fifteen years.

The award includes a $ 10,000 grant and a budget of $ 2,500 for the promotion and organization of an solo exhibition in Montréal. The Ville de Montréal also acquires a work by the winner for its municipal art collection.

The call for applications is currently closed. The next call will begin in August 2027.
