Thank You To Our Valuable Volunteers

 

                                                                            

 

     Thank you to everyone who volunteers at Aiken Center for the Arts. Your contribution assists the Arts Center in serving our community in the arts, art education and cultural enrichment.
     The Michelangelo Award for extraordinary volunteer service in 2009 has been given to Anna Dangerfield. Anna Dangerfield is a very active and generous supporter of the community and the Arts Center. She has been involved with one of the two major fundraisers, Antiques in the Heart of Aiken, since its inception. In 2008 she was Chair and in 2009 she was Co-chair. For the past year she has Chaired the 10th Anniversary Committee for Antiques in the Heart of Aiken that produced the Antiques Commemorative Book. Anna also serves on the Arts Center’s Board of Directors and is an active committee member of the Volunteer and Membership Committees. Anna is a stellar example of the Michelangelo Award’s standard for extraordinary volunteer service.
          You can find Volunteer of the Year, Mary O’Hara, in the Gallery Store nearly every Monday. She is keeping busy answering phones, greeting customers and completing projects for the staff. Mary is happy to be stuffing envelopes, cutting out crafts, collecting newspaper articles or any other job that will help. If she does not have a project to work on, she is asking what else she can do to help. The staff really appreciates her devotion to the Art Center and can not thank her enough for the time she spends doing odd jobs for us. Our time is very limited and we could not do our jobs without the help of volunteers like Mary.
