Distinguished Service in the Arts Award Benefit

Distinguished Service Award Medal

At a wonderful dinner and party at the Charles Hotel in Harvard Square in November, 2001, the Work Center awarded its third round of Distinguished Service in the Arts Awards.

The recipients were painter Chuck Close, author William Kennedy and art patrons Stephen D. and Susan Paine. In past years, awards have been given to Stanley Kunitz and Louise Bourgeois (1997) and Grace Paley and Robert Blackburn (1998).

The FAWC Distinguished Service in the Arts Medals, designed by sculptor and FAWC Board co-chairman Gilbert Franklin, are presented to individuals of national distinction who have provided exceptional guidance and inspiration to emerging visual artists and writers.

The medal is a symbol of our commitment to developing artistic talent and an emblem of gratitude to those who remain supportive of the needs of succeeding generations.

The 2001 Boston Awards Dinner was part of the Work Center's ongoing $2 million Capital Campaign to repair its buildings, reduce mortgage debt and increase its endowment.
