The 2023 prize
In the wake of the ecological awarding that fanheart3 has chosen to pursue in the previous editions of the fanheart3 awards and in consideration of the tragic environmental events that have been affecting the Italian territory for several months now, fanheart3 decided to make a donation on behalf of our winners to Spiritus Mundi ODV, an organisation of young volunteers involved in the creation of forests in the Veneto region and in recreating the ecosystem for biodiversity.
Fanheart3 also chose to support a local craftsman, Mario Favaro, who provided the frames containing the award certificates. Visit Mario Favaro’s website to find out more about his art.
