    YEREVAN, APRIL 2, NOYAN TAPAN. On March 30 the Hayastan All-Armenian
    Fund held the concluding round of the President's Youth Prize
    competitions, the fine-arts and film competition. The exhibition, which
    featured the works of 19 finalists and gave jurors the opportunity
    to make their final selections, took place at the main gallery of
    the Artists' Union of Armenia, in Yerevan.

    Commenting on the general quality of the paintings, sculptures,
    graphics works, photographs, and films displayed at the exhibition,
    jury members were unanimous in their judgment that this year's entries
    represented an unprecedented level of originality and sophistication.

    "This year marks the tenth anniversary of the President's Prize
    and the sixth anniversary of the President's Youth Prize," said
    Aida Khachikyan, advisor to the executive director of the Hayastan
    All-Armenian Fund. "We are extremely pleased that during the past
    decade the competitions have enabled 140 outstanding candidates in
    various fields of culture and science to receive recognition and gain
    public exposure. Of the dozens of talented artists who have won the
    President's Youth Prize, many have gone on to represent Armenia at
    prestigious international competitions. They include the acclaimed
    singing duo of sisters Inga and Anush Arshakyan, singer Gevorg
    Hakobyan, and painter Arshak Sargsyan."

    According to the report of the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's press
    release, the awards ceremony will be held on May 13.
