CharlottesvilleThe Mildred W. Spicer Arts Fund, a Charlottesville-based initiative designed to enhance artistic discovery and creativity, is pleased to announce Constance Wyant and Alzheimer’s Association Arts Fusion as winners of its second annual Arts Award.

The Arts Award celebrates inclusive art opportunities for people with disabilities within the community. An award celebration recognizing both winners for promoting art exploration throughout the Charlottesville-Albemarle area is scheduled for Thursday, October 8, 2015, at City Space, and is open to the public.

“Both Constance Wyant and the Alzheimer’s Association Arts Fusion program represent the spirit of the Mildred W. Spicer Arts Award,” said Mary Miller, a committee member for the Mildred W. Spicer Arts Fund. “Constance represents the impact that a single individual can have within the arts community while the Alzheimer’s Association represents the joint efforts of an organization. Together, their work has helped improve art opportunities for everyone – with and without disabilities.”
