People's artist of the Georgian SSR

People's Artist of the Georgian SSR was the highest honorary title in the performing arts of the Georgian Soviet Socialist Republic, awarded to outstanding artists of theatre, music, cinema, and dance. It was officially established on 27 May 1936 as the title "Honored Artist of the Republic" and reformed as People's Artist of the Georgian SSR on April 25, 1940, after which it remained in use until the dissolution of the Soviet Union. In the hierarchy of Soviet artistic honorary titles, the title ranked one step above "Honoured Artist of the Georgian SSR" and was the republic-level counterpart of the all-Union title People's Artist of the USSR. It was usually conferred no earlier than five years after the Honoured Artist title, and could in turn lead to the all-Union title.
