Business and arts partnerships of all sizes across Northern Ireland have been urged to enter this year's Arts & Business NI Awards, in partnership with Forestside.

This year, there are five categories open for entries including, Creative Community Engagement Award, Creative Workplace Award, Creative Communications Award, Leaders on Arts Boards Award and Commitment to Diversity Award.
Mary Nagele, CEO of Arts & Business NI commented: "The launch of the Arts & Business NI Awards is always an exciting time for us, and a welcome opportunity to showcase what is possible when the cultural and private sectors collaborate. The creative projects, not only bring benefits to both partners but also deliver many cultural and economic benefits across Northern Ireland. We are thrilled that Forestside, a business which is a long-standing champion and supporter of the arts, is principal sponsor for the Awards again this year."
Lee Cutler, Forestside Centre Manager and Awards Sponsor added: "It has been our great pleasure to sponsor the Arts & Business NI Awards over the past three years. Each year, we are inspired by entries from businesses, who understand the value of the arts and the innovation partnership brings. The arts can uplift, inspire innovation, connect communities and help make Northern Ireland a vibrant place in which to live and do business. We look forward to showcasing this year’s deserving nominees at the Awards ceremony in January."
