About the organization

The Citizen of the Year Awards WA is a longstanding civic recognition program administered by the Government of Western Australia. Established to honor individuals who have demonstrated exceptional service to their communities, the awards celebrate contributions across areas such as volunteering, leadership, and social impact. While not an arts-specific organization, its ethos of acknowledging grassroots dedication and public good resonates with cultural values of stewardship and community engagement.

Application guidance

Nomination is open to any Western Australian resident who has made a significant contribution to their community. The process typically requires a detailed nomination form outlining the nominee's achievements and impact. Artists and cultural workers whose practice is deeply embedded in community service may find this award relevant, but it is not a grant or residency opportunity. Prospective nominators should visit the official website for current deadlines and criteria.
