Arts Leadership Award Program
2024 Alameda County Arts Leadership Award Recipients
Judy Anglin, Dmitry Grudsky, Paul Keim, Lani Llamido, Graham Lustig and Lorrie Murray
On Tuesday, October 1, 2024, the Alameda County Board of Supervisors recognized the 2024 Alameda County Arts Leadership Award Recipients who are Judy Anglin, Dmitry Grudsky, Paul Keim, Lani Llamido, Graham Lustig and Lorrie Murray. The six arts leaders were honored for their achievements and contributions positively impacting the arts community and residents of Alameda County. The award recipients received commendations presented in conjunction with the County’s annual celebration of National Arts and Humanities Month of October.
Each year the appointed members of the Alameda County Arts Commission review nominations submitted by the public for the Alameda County Arts Leadership Award program and then select the award recipients. The goal is to honor an arts leader in each of the five districts of the Alameda County Board of Supervisors. During the Arts Commission’s selection process, there was a tie-vote. This resulted in awarding two individuals in County District Two. Therefore, in total, six individuals received the 2024 Alameda County Arts Leadership Award. The annual Arts Leadership Award Program began in 2003. With the addition of the six award recipients of 2024, the Alameda County Arts Commission has now given awards to 120 arts leaders throughout the Alameda County community.
