Seeking nominations for the Patrons of the Arts Awards

Missouri Lawyers Weekly is holding the first ever Patrons of the Arts Awards. The Award Gala will be held Wednesday, October 12, 2011 at The Sheldon Ballroom & Concert Hall in St. Louis, Missouri. See the letter from S. Richard Gard, Jr., the President & Publisher of Missouri Lawyers Weekly here.

The Patrons of the Arts Awards will recognize those lawyers and accountants who provide extraordinary support and leadership to artists, arts organizations and the arts. A portion of the ticket sales will go to the Kansas City Volunter Lawyers and Accountants for the Arts and the St. Louis Volunteer Lawyers and Accountants for the Arts.

If you are an artist or an arts organization, what attorneys or accountants have helped you or your organization? Do they serve on your board? Do they volunteer for you? Are they true Patrons of the Arts?

If you are an attorney or accountant, who of your collegues stands out as a supporter of the arts?

The nomination process is simple. The form for nominations can be found here. The form provides all the details about the nomination process and nomination catagories.

Please don't delay! The nomination deadline is August 5th. This is a great opportunity to recognize those in our community that make the arts community in Kansas City better by their support. It is also a great way to support the KCVLAA.

So please, nominate liberally and often! Do it before the deadline of August 5th and spread the word about this opportunity!
