Suggest a Cultural Act of the Year 2024

The city of Riihimäki is looking for candidates for the Culture Act of the Year 2024 recognition award.

The purpose of the Culture Act of the Year recognition award is to recognize distinguished cultural actors in Riihimäki.

"The basis of the award is an act for the benefit of Riihimäki's culture, which has promoted, diversified or made local creative know-how visible. So now anyone can influence the recipient of the award by suggesting a suitable candidate in their opinion," says responsible cultural producer Lyti Aaltonen.

The recognition award can be based on a cultural work or cultural event, an artist who lives permanently in Riihimäki and works professionally in his/her art field, or a part-time or full-time cultural worker who has promoted and strengthened the local cultural offering.

You can submit your proposal for the Cultural Act of the Year recognition award from 11 September to 30 November 2024 here from the link. The recipient of the award is selected based on these proposals. The amount of the award is 1000 euros and it will be awarded in February 2025.

In 2024, only the Culture Act of the Year award will be awarded. In previous years, the Riihimäkeläinen Young Artist of the Year recognition award and the Culture recognition award have also been awarded.
