Awards (Starting 2022).
The Annual Women in Crafts Award will be launched in 2022, it is the first award that will be presented in the field of traditional art and crafts. The Annual award will be given to a craftswoman who devoted her skills and time to the production of quality artcrafts and skilling fellow crafts women.
