Honouring Heritage. Remembering Legacy. Celebrating Impact-Herbert Prins

 

Description

CALL FOR ENTRIES

 

Honouring Heritage. Remembering Legacy. Celebrating Impact.

Once a beloved Art Deco landmark, the Colosseum Theatre in Johannesburg was demolished in 1985 despite strong public resistance, becoming a powerful symbol of the city’s lost heritage. In response, passionate activists like Herbert Prins dedicated their lives to protecting what remains, raising awareness about the importance of preserving our cultural identity.

 

Established through these efforts, the Herbert Prins Colosseum Awards recognise and celebrate outstanding initiatives in heritage conservation. The award’s floating trophy, created by renowned artist Cecil Skotnes, stands as a lasting tribute to this mission.

 

Herbert Prins (1927–2020), a respected heritage architect and academic for over 70 years, is remembered for his unwavering commitment to conservation. These awards honour not only excellence in the field, but also his remarkable legacy.

Celebrate Heritage. Honour Excellence. Inspire the Future.

 

The Herbert Prins Colosseum Awards invite entries that recognise exceptional contributions to heritage conservation across the greater Highveld region, including PIA, SAIA Mpumalanga, and SAIA Limpopo & Northwest.

 

We are looking for:

•Conservation, Commemoration & Adaptive Reuse

Projects that revitalise buildings, places, or spaces.

•Rescue & Advocacy Efforts

Initiatives protecting endangered heritage.

•Research & Publications

Work advancing the understanding of Gauteng’s heritage.
