-
Innovation: Celebrating creative forces who have made a lasting impact through imaginative artistic endeavors.
-
Legacy: Honoring leaders and visionaries who have left an indelible mark on the choral community, ensuring its growth and sustainability.
The inaugural awards were presented at the 2023 UNISON Festival in Halifax, marking a new chapter in recognizing excellence within the choral world.
