Nominate
It is possible to nominate your favorite in three different categories: the Incentive and Appreciation Prize for an organization and an individual. The Appreciation Prize is awarded to an individual and an organization with a demonstrable track record. Which organization has managed to surprise and move you and is of exceptional added value to this city? Who or which creator is indispensable to cultural Eindhoven? Let us know by submitting your nomination via Eindhoven Cultural Awards and selecting the category Appreciation Prize – individual and/or Appreciation Prize – organization there. Has the organization you wish to nominate existed for less than five years and is it a particularly promising prospect for culture in Eindhoven? Then nominate the organization in question for the Stimuleringsprijs. Ensure that you always include a motivation; otherwise, your nomination will not be considered. The motivation is free in format and may include images, sound, or text.
