Every Year, this prize recognizes an individual who takes a creative and unconventional approach to being a citizen in our society.

The award reflects Porte Parole’s belief that if we can approach the act of being a citizen with imagination and with a sense of poetry and humour, we can overcome the disorienting experience of being a citizen in today’s world.  

By giving this award, the Company aims to celebrate the potential of individuals to find power in democracy, and to find beauty in politics.

“For over 20 years, Jasmine Catudal’s work as a set designer, a producer, and a cultural entrepreneur has been driven by the question: ‘how can the performing arts create relevant encounters between diverse audiences, and how can they help us build a more resilient civic society?’  Her deep commitment to forging creative pathways to civic engagement makes her a true Artful Citizen.”
