ABC/NY 45th Annual Encore Awards

The Encore Awards honor arts and business partnerships, creative business volunteers, and excellence in arts management.

As the distinctions between art and commerce continue to blur, this year the Arts & Business Council of New York (ABC/NY) introduced the Encore Exchange as an annual forum for exploring the creative aspects of business and the business side of the arts.

The inaugural Encore Exchange focused on entrepreneurialism and was moderated by author and journalist Kurt Andersen. Panelists included Bill Moggridge, a founder of the global design and innovation firm IDEO and now the director of the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum; and Laura R. Walker, President of New York Public Radio.

The awards ceremony was emceed by WQXR Radio’s Elliott Forrest. Presenters included legendary actress Barbara Feldon (Get Smart), who serves on the board of the Orchestra of St. Luke’s; world-class cellist and classical music innovator David Finckel; and New York City’s first Chief Service Officer, Diahann Billings-Burford. Entertainment was provided by members of the Orchestra of St. Luke’s and Broadway veteran and OBIE Award-winner Donna Lynne Champlin.

Encore Award honorees were: for Arts & Business Partnership and Excellence in Arts Management - WNYC & WQXR; for Excellence in Arts Management - Marianne C. Lockwood, President, Orchestra of St. Luke’s; for Arts & Business Partnership and Creative Business Volunteers - Free Arts NYC & Deutsche Bank; and for Arts & Business Partnership - New York Musical Theatre Festival & TheaterMania.com.
