Governor’s Arts Awards
Recognizing Achievements in the Arizona Arts Community
The Governor’s Arts Awards are presented annually by Arizona Citizens for the Arts, the Arizona Commission on the Arts and the Office of the Governor of Arizona to recognize outstanding achievement and contributions to the Arizona arts community.
Since 1981, the Governor’s Arts Awards have been held to recognize outstanding contributions by Arizona artists, arts organizations, businesses, educators and individuals. The awards honor not only the creative talents of Arizona’s diverse arts and cultural community, but the passion of those who support the arts in our schools, communities and everyday lives.
The 2012 Governor’s Arts Awards will be presented March 27, 2012, at the Herberger Theater Center. Nominations will be accepted until midnight, December 21, 2011. For a complete list of previous winners, including “Shelley” advocate awards, visit http://www.governorsartsawards.org/.
