Awards
Each year, at the Winter Ball, we recognize those who contributed the most to arts and music in the Portland area during the preceeding year.
Congratulations to Jessica Marks, Portland Community Arts Council Artist of the Year for 2011, for all she does to brighten the downtown with her art -- window displays, handmade jewelry, children's classes, and even an Adirondack chair last year. Thank you, Jessica!
And congratulations to the 2011 Musician of the Year, Pat White. Pat is always on hand to provide music at the bandshell, in the streets, and anywhere else he's asked. Thank you, Pat, for brightening our world with your gift of song!
