TIME is running out to get your nominations in for this year's Reading Cultural Awards.
Celebrating the best of the town's arts, culture and heritage over the last 12 months, the awards recognise those individuals, organisations and charities who have made a significant contribution to Reading's cultural landscape.
Nominations for this year's awards close on Friday, April 20, and the winners will be announced during a glittery ceremony at The Olympia Ballroom on Wednesday, June 27.
The categories include Visual Arts Event of the Year, Young Talent under 25, Business Champion of the Arts, as well as the prestigious Cultural Organisation of the Year.
Any artist, organisation, performance, arts venue or event which took place between April 2017 and March 31, 2018 can be put forward for an award, with nominations being accepted until midnight on April 20.
A spokesperson for organisers Reading UK said: "The Awards champion the many great organisations and artists that put their creative hearts and souls into Reading.
"Help us celebrate their achievements by nominating them for an award – there are 12 categories to choose from and the nomination process is very quick and simple."
