The prestigious celebration of the county’s vibrant arts scene will take place on February 3 at Theatre by the Lake in Keswick, hosted by writer and broadcaster Stuart Maconie, and with live performances from teenage saxophonist Jess Gillam and Cumbria-based folk legend Maddy Prior.
There are 16 awards covering visual and performing arts; design, craft and writing; and venues, events and organisations.
Cumbria Life editor Richard Eccles said: “We are delighted to be repeating the awards and already have a superb panel of judges and some great performers.
“The Cumbrian public can play a big part in these awards by nominating their cultural highlights, which feeds into the judging process.”
Readers can nominate at , where artists and organisations can also enter. The closing date is tomorrow.
The awards are sponsored by University of Cumbria and Lakes Culture, and are supported by Arts Council England.
Cumbria Life is published by CN Group.
