An Ozzie finalist

Hi everyone,

I’ve learned that I’m on the list of three finalists for The Arts Ambassador Award, an Ozzie competition held each year by Springfield Regional Arts Council. The other two finalists are Joshua Best and Samuel Knox. On its website at https://www.springfieldarts.org/ozzie-awards/ , SRAC describes this Ozzie as follows.

This award highlights an individual or team that has taken an active role in building a sustainable and thriving ecosystem for the arts in the Ozarks. The recipient of this award is someone who has worked tirelessly to create, promote, or support the arts, and has made a significant impact on the local arts community. 

The winner in each category will be announced at a ceremony on October 14, to be held at Springfield-Branson Airport.
