The Ben Wicks Award is a program designed to give three different new cartoonists each year a chance to have their work published. The winners of this award receive exposure to their art, as well as a cheque for $10,000 (Canadian Dollars) to help further their education or career.

The winner and runner-ups are each notified within a week or two of the deadline and the winner then must fulfill their obligation to illustrate the publication they won for.
