In the U.K., the Tate Gallery awards the Turner Prize for excellence in contemporary art.
The Turnip Prize is a spoof award that satirises the Turner Prize.
The Turnip Prize began in 1999 as a joke but gained nationwide attention and has remained. First prize is a turnip nailed to a block of wood, awarded each year in early December.
