01 · THE DISPATCH

The Culture Ministry announced Tuesday it is reinstating creation prizes that were previously canceled and adding several new categories to provide wider representation. The move follows earlier discussions regarding the prize framework. As The Zioneer reported Monday, the ministry was preparing an expanded 2026 prize program, including a lifetime achievement award, a young artist prize, and a new immigrant category in dance. The current announcement formalizes the revival of canceled prizes alongside additional categories, though full details of the new categories and eligibility criteria have not yet been released.
