The UBC Cultural Prize 2010

The UBC Commission on Culture is asking the member cities to propose a candidate for the cultural prize 2010 "Multicultural Dialog". While distributing the prize the UBC Commission on Culture will appreciate activities which
- have influenced the city's cultural life in a remarkable way
- have influenced the image of the city in a positive way
- have strengthened the identity of the city
- have raised the awareness of cultural values of life.
The cultural prize is addressed to the UBC member cities. Municipalities are the only entities to apply. The organizations willing to apply for the prize are obliged to submit their application forms by the agency of a municipality. Each UBC member city is allowed to submit only one application for the cultural prize. The cities that have a representative in the board of the Commission on Culture may not submit an application.

The candidating activities should have been realized successfully in 2010. The application should contain
- a detailed description of the cultural activity
- a photographic portfolio (preferably digital photos)
- press cuttings (if available)
- the applicants (member cities) evaluation and motivation of the cultural and other values of the activity.

The grant for the cultural activity is 1500 euro and the decision of the UBC Commission on Culture will be announced at the Commission on Culture Annual Working Session in Umeå 22-23 October.

The completed application form should be e-mailed to the UBC Commission on Culture Secretariat: maarit.keto-seppala@turku.fi by 31 August 2010 at the latest.
