Established in 1970, the Governor’s Award for the Arts is given to individuals and organizations that have made a profound and enduring impact on the artistic and cultural life of Delaware. What does it take to create a vital environment for the arts? Individuals working tirelessly on behalf of organizations to pioneer innovative strategies, develop local as well as international initiatives, and mobilize arts resources. The award recipients, each in their unique way, have done this and more —from preserving our cultural icons such as Rembrandt’s “Night Watch” to infusing the city of Wilmington with a new arts vitality, to tapping into the unmet need for music education, to being a champion of the visual arts and theater.
