Journalists have just one week left to submit their entries for the inaugural South African Arts Journalism Awards, to be presented by The National Arts Festival, Grahamstown and Business and Arts South Africa (BASA).
The awards will recognise journalistic practice across print, online and broadcast platforms.
Convenor of the judging panel Professor Chris Thurman commented, “We have received a range of entries from across the media spectrum, covering a variety of artistic disciplines and different modes of arts journalism. We would, however, like to make the judges’ task as difficult as possible, and we encourage all those journalists who have not yet submitted material to do so before the deadline!”
Winners will be announced during the course of this year’s National Arts Festival and a range of cash prizes will be awarded. Additionally, one journalist will be awarded the opportunity to travel to the vibrant Amsterdam Fringe in September, from where they will report on South African productions being presented at that Festival as part of the World Fringe Alliance showcase.
Competition rules and other important information can be found on the Festival’s website at http://www.nationalartsfestival.co.za/arts-journalism-awards/.
