VALES
Each year, we take the opportunity during the Awards ceremony to reflect on the lives which have shaped our industry.
If you know someone who has passed away in the previous eighteen months, and who deserves recognition for their contribution to Western Australia’s professional performing arts community, you can let us know using the form below.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that clicking into a vale year will show the names of deceased persons.
