These are the contenders for the Tilburgse Creatieprijs 2023
On Friday, December 15, the Tilburgse Creatieprijs will again be awarded to a Tilburg creator, person or organization whose creation has made a significant contribution to the city. For two weeks, the people of Tilburg had the opportunity to nominate creative individuals and organizations for the award. We now proudly present the final three contenders for the Tilburgse Creatieprijs 2023!
During the two-week nomination period, everyone had the chance to nominate Tilburg creatives for the prize. From all nominations, the jury then selected three final contenders, who will be present during the award ceremony on December 15 in the Lochal. These are, in no particular order:
- Amber Dijs and Pien Rutten (for Krakers Tilburg and Studio Noord)
- Kelly van den Bosch (for Tweedehands het Festival).
- Makers collective Murf/Murw
On Friday, December 15, the winner of the Tilburg Creation Prize will be announced during a special broadcast of TilbuZz in the Lochal, which will be entirely devoted to the prize. The broadcast can be followed live via radio (Omroep Tilburg) from 16:00-17:00, or on the spot in the Lochal. The winner of the Tilburg Creation Prize will receive a unique trophy, designed by artist Bryan van Schooten.
About the Tilburgse Creatieprijs
Tilburg is a city of creators. An open home for cultural innovators and titillating niches. We build not only with our hands, but also with our knowledge and ideas. We transform the city and are known for coming up with new, impactful concepts. Concepts that offer solutions to tomorrow's social challenges. To celebrate the city's creative maker climate, each year Stichting Marketing Tilburg presents the Tilburgse Creatieprijs to a creator, initiative, project or organization that has made a significant contribution to the city that year. More information about the prize can be found here.
