The Hessian State Prize for German Arts and Crafts has been awarded since 1951 to craftspeople who have distinguished themselves with their self-designed works of outstanding craftsmanship and artistry. The aim of the State Prize is to provide an incentive for particularly creative, artistic achievements in German arts and crafts.
The prize will be awarded on the occasion of the Frankfurt International Trade Fair Ambiente, which will take place at the Frankfurt exhibition grounds from February 7 to 11, 2025. An exhibition of selected works from the 2025 competition round will be on display throughout the trade fair to accompany the festive event and award ceremony on February 7, 2025.
A total of 13,000 euros will be available as prize money in 2025. A first prize of 5,000 euros, a second prize of 4,000 euros and a third prize of 3,000 euros will be awarded. A sponsorship prize of 1,000 euros will also be awarded. The prize winners will also receive a certificate.
