Merit award
The primary aim of the Merit Award is to offer support to contemporary artists across the world. Due to limited resources and connections, many outstanding artists struggle to showcase their work to a broader audience. As part of our commitment to nurturing the artistic community both in Israel and globally, we provide mentorship to artists to help them advance in their careers.

The selection committee chooses artists who have previously held solo exhibitions and provides them with support to advance to the next level.

Nominees must meet specific criteria, such as being at least 22 years of age at the time of submission, having a minimum of three solo exhibitions, and possessing strong local recognition.
