2010 Annual Members Conference Awards
Nominations Now Open!
Every year, Arts Presenters members have the opportunity to recognize the managers, artists, agents, presenters, organizations and individuals who have made and continue to make significant contributions to the performing arts.
You must be a member of Arts Presenters to nominate an individual or organization for a Member Award, but your nominee need not be a member in good standing so long as that person or institution has displayed a commitment to the performing arts that has affected the field in profound and lasting ways.
Please take the time to recognize your peers for their years of hard work and dedication. Once nominations are compiled, a peer panel of members will review the submissions and determine this year's award recipients.
Awards will be distributed at the 53rd Annual Members Conference, January 2010.
