Cultural Deed of the Year award
Each year, the City of Tampere presents an award for the cultural deed of the year. The prize is awarded for efforts in the cultural sector. The key characteristic of a prize-winning cultural deed is that it has by its existence or operation developed, enriched, or diversified the cultural life of the city.
The award for a cultural deed is granted for special efforts aimed at developing or enriching the cultural sector in Tampere. The Education and Culture Committee decided on the winner in a meeting in February based on proposals submitted by the local residents.
