Do you want to acknowledge an exceptional arts education leader?
Do colleagues call you an arts advocacy superhero?
Did a business executive in your community go above and beyond for the arts this year?

It's time to recognize their hard work.

Americans for the Arts presents the Annual Awards to honor the achievements of leaders committed to enriching their communities through the arts each year. For every path an arts professional's career might take, there is an award that is right for them:

Alene Valkanas State Arts Advocacy Award
Arts Education Award
Emerging Leader Award
Michael Newton Award for United Arts Funds Leadership
Public Art Network Award
Selina Roberts Ottum Award for Arts Leadership

Why should you submit a nomination?

First, it's simple and will only take a few minutes of your time.

Second, if your nominee is selected, you and the recipient will be recognized in your local community and nationally during the Annual Convention.

Third, it's a great way to recognize the exemplary leadership and innovation of yourself or one of your peers.

The Annual Award Nomination Form is available now through February 15, 2008. Only professional members of Americans for the Arts are eligible to make nominations, but anyone may be nominated. Join today so that you can nominate your hero.
