This informs the public about the Appy for the Marŝarto Awards 2024. Details about the Program are given below. The Marŝarto Awards recognise exceptional walking art. The Awards culminate in October, coinciding with Walktober, the global call to promote walking as a creative experience.
Winners walk away with a cash prize of up to 1000 euros. Any walking piece created during the previous or current year and submitted to the Walk · Listen · Create a website is eligible. So, for the Marŝarto Awards 2024, work created in 2023 and 2024 is eligible.
Program Details
From the body of the submitted work, the Online Jury abstracts a short list of walking pieces, which will be announced soon after the end of October. From this shortlist, the Grand Jury chooses the winners of the Marŝarto Awards based on a collaboratively defined set of criteria.
From 2024 onwards, the general public, you, also play a role in the selection process; the submission with the largest number of hearts (likes), which is not already selected by the Online Jury for inclusion in the shortlist, is also included in the shortlist. So, vote for your favourite walking piece to make sure they make it to the shortlist.
Prize
Walking art that makes it to the shortlist gets bragging rights. Winners and honourable mentions receive a physical award. In addition, winners receive a cash prize of 500 euros; honourable mentions receive a cash prize of 200 euros.
We facilitate a membership program, which operates like a crowdfunding campaign. When we reach certain thresholds in support, the cash prize for winners can grow to 1000 euros, with the cash prize for honourable mentions can grow to 400 euros.
