Deputy President Paul Mashatile will attend the National Arts and Culture Awards (NACA) on Friday and at the South African Sports Awards (SASA) on Sunday.
Both events are scheduled to take place at the Sun City Superbowl in the North West.
The NACAs, previously known as the Cultural and Creative Industry Awards, shine a national spotlight on the creators, innovators, and visionaries who push boundaries and shape the country’s cultural identity.
According to the Presidency, this year’s nominees reflect the rich diversity, imagination, and resilience that define South Africa’s creative sector.
The SASAs aim to recognise the contribution of sports to social cohesion and unity and celebrate courage and excellent performance in the field of sports.
Hosted by the Department of Sport, Arts and Culture, these awards reaffirm government’s commitment to supporting the development of South Africa’s creative and sports industries.
“As a champion of social cohesion and nation-building initiatives, Deputy President Mashatile is expected to highlight the importance of sports, arts and culture in shaping South Africa’s national identity, fostering social cohesion, and contributing to economic growth,” the statement read. – SAnews.gov.za
