Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 25247, member: 2262"] Next week, people will learn who might win special art prizes in Zimbabwe. Everyone can watch the big announcement on Facebook and YouTube when it happens on Wednesday morning. The special art prizes are called the National Arts Merit Awards. Artists in Zimbabwe work really hard all year to make amazing things. The best ones receive these awards at a big party on March 1. This year, the awards have an exciting idea called "Afrofuturism." It makes artists think about what art will look like many years from today. Artists mix old African stories with new ideas about the future, creating wonderful new things by combining traditional methods with fresh, modern thoughts. Many people feel excited about these awards. They want to find out which amazing artists will win prizes for making Zimbabwe's art world shine bright. The awards show everyone the beautiful and special art that comes from Zimbabwe. [/QUOTE]
