History

In 1947 the Yorkton Film Council was founded.[1]:6 In 1950 the first Yorkton Film Festival was held in Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada.[2] During the first few festivals, the films were adjudicated by audience participation through ballot casting and winners were awarded Certificates of Merit by the film festival council.[3][4] In 1958 the film council established the Yorkton Film Festival Golden Sheaf Award for the category Best of Festival, awarded to the best overall film of the festival.[3] Over the years various additional categories were added to the competition. As of 2020, the Golden Sheaf Award categories included: Main Entry Categories, Accompanying Categories, Craft Categories, and Special Awards.[5]

In 1994 the Golden Sheaf Award for the best Multicultural production was added to the Accompanying Categories of the film festival competition. The winner of this award is determined by a panel of jurors[6] chosen by the film council. Films in any genre that reflect Canada’s racial diversity and multicultural landscape are considered for this award.[5]
