Lithuania’s Culture Ministry has opened nominations for its Debut of the Year and Young Creator awards.
The Debut of the Year prize honors the best debut by a young artist or young artists’ collective in the professional arts during the qualifying year. The ministry says the work must show creative innovation and receive strong evaluations from professional arts critics.
Six Young Creator awards will recognize young artists or collectives for work produced over the previous three years. The work must have been positively assessed by professional arts critics and gained public recognition.
Individuals and legal entities active in culture and the arts may submit candidates, including professional artists and arts critics. The awards, along with other Culture Ministry prizes, will be presented at a formal ceremony held at the end of the year. Nominations are due by Oct. 1.
