2010 Pinnacle Awards Announcement

The Johnson County Library Foundation is seeking public nominations for the 2010 Pinnacle Awards. The Pinnacle Award was launched in 2002 by the Johnson County Library Foundation to recognize excellence in the arts. The award is presented annually to a significant artist or arts supporter whose work has influenced the cultural well-being of the community. Beginning in 2008, the Foundation expanded the Pinnacle Award to include three additional categories, which highlight a program or special area of emphasis at the Johnson County Library. The additional awards will recognize Excellence in: Advocacy and Public Engagement; Business and Entrepreneurship; and Literacy and Education. Honorees must demonstrate excellence in their professional field or philanthropic pursuits.

Nominations may be submitted by the public via an online nomination form. Deadline for nominations is Friday, June 18, 2010. Foundation staff is available to assist nominators in completing the online nomination form.
