The Stanly County Arts Council is currently seeking nominations for the Arts Person of the Year award. This award was created in 2014 by the Arts Council to recognize those who have made a significant positive impact on the arts in Stanly County, and who have worked diligently to support, promote, and create quality arts experiences for the whole community. Previous winners include Charlotte Maness, Angela Moore,  Wes Tucker, Carmella Hedrick, Tim Harris, John Williams, Aza Hudson, Kent Harkey/Edna Lipe-Harkey and Tim Hendricks.  In 2021, funds were reallocated to honor all arts educators in the county for their commitment to educating our youth about the fine arts during the pandemic.

Anyone who lives or works in Stanly County can nominate someone for this award. The nominees should also live or work in Stanly County and should meet the previously mentioned award criteria.  The winner will receive a $250 donation to the arts organization of their choice.
