Close to the end of the exhibit and as a way of promoting plastic arts, prizes are awarded to five different pieces in order of merit. As real proof of good will and promotion of understanding amongst peoples, not long ago one of the top prizes was awarded to a plastic artist from the Falkland Islands, bought by the Chamber of Commerce itself to be shown in one of its main meeting rooms.
