NSW Premier's Literary Awards 2010

Award sponsored wholly by the Community Relations Commission

The Community Relations Commission Award ($15,000) is offered to the writer of a book, play, music drama or script which is deemed by the judges to have both made a significant contribution to Australian literature, theatre, film, radio or television in its portrayal of the interaction of Australia's diverse cultures, and canvassed issues arising from the Australian immigration and migrant settlement experience.

The judges may elect to give the award to any eligible work which has been entered in the other Awards categories.

Previous winners of the Community Relations Commission Award include Arnold Zable, Ursula Dubosarsky, Mara Moustafine, Shaun Tan and Jacob G. Rosenberg.
