Awards Celebration

For the past 38 years, the Arts + Business Council has hosted an annual awards ceremony to celebrate its mission and increase support to enable the organization to expand its impact and reach. This upcoming year, the Arts + Business Council will honor projects that demonstrate an impactful collaboration between the arts and business sectors. Arts organizations, businesses, artists, and other groups and individuals are eligible to nominate a project active on or after May 2021.

Join us in May to celebrate and learn more from this year’s awardees and businesses advancing the arts. The event will be filled with live performances, drinks, light fare, and an opportunity to network with Arts + Business Council’s community, including creative leaders, advocates, and artists from the region.

Supporting Arts + Business Council’s Annual Awards Celebration raises crucial funding to enable the organization to continue its impact and expand its reach. Thank you for your support.

Arts + Business Council Awards Nominations Are Now Closed.

In its 38 years, the Arts + Business Council Awards have taken different forms to best recognize leaders who embody and foster cross-sector collaboration between creative and business communities. Along the way, some award categories have been added to highlight specific verticals within our communities while other categories have been retired to make room for new, innovative ideas.
