The Pittsburgh Foundation and The Heinz Endowments invite you to
celebrate the visionary work of Pittsburgh artists by attending the
2018 Carol R. Brown Creative Achievement Awards. Please join us as we
recognize an established artist, Tony Ferrieri, and an emerging
artist, Alisha B. Wormsley, for exemplary artistic achievements and
promise for future work. This year marks the seventh presentation of
these awards. Carol R. Brown served as president of the Pittsburgh
Cultural Trust during the transformation of the cultural district in
downtown Pittsburgh from a red-light district to a nationally
recognized model for arts-based community redevelopment. She conceived
of the awards in 1991 as an avenue to support working artists and
their creative processes from concept to completion. The Carol R.
Brown Awards are a component of the Investing in Professional Artists
Program, which is among a select few in the region that provide direct
philanthropic support to individuals. You may learn more about set
designer Tony Ferrieri here and interdisciplinary artist Alisha B.
Wormsley here.
