Strahm, General Manager of Pan Pacific Hanoi Hotel. “Through this award, we aim to foster the exploration of creative and sustainable artistic practices and strengthen the connection between artists and our community.”

The competition is now open to Vietnamese artists aged 18 to 30 who have undergone art training at accredited institutions or universities and are actively pursuing their artistic careers in Hanoi. We also encourage artists with disabilities, aged 12 to 35, to participate and share their unique perspectives.
