The annual Freemuse Freedom of Artistic Expression Award exists to celebrate artists, activists, organisations, cultural institutions and media platforms who have significantly contributed to protecting, defending and promoting artistic freedom anywhere across the world.

The recipient of the annual Freemuse Freedom of Artistic Expression Award is honored at a Freemuse gala celebration.
The Freemuse Freedom of Artistic Expression Award is open to artists, activists, institutions and organisations who have worked to promote artistic freedom, challenge artistic censorship, and expose threats to artistic expressions on the ground or internationally. This includes work across all genres of artistic expressions, such as musicians, theatre performers, and cartoonists.
