Duluth Art Institute receives Stand for the Arts Award

Spectrum and Ovation TV presented the Duluth Art Institute with a $10,000 Stand for the Arts Award at the Institute’s Annual Member Show on Wednesday evening.

The Stand for the Arts Award recognizes local arts, cultural and educational programs.  In 2023, there are ten organizations across the country that are receiving support from Spectrum. The award is based off certain criteria including support of creatives and artists via community-driven programming, advocation for equity and access to the arts and providing accessible spaces for creative expression.

Since the initiative started in 2017, Spectrum and Ovation Spectrum have given out nearly 60 awards totaling around $600,000 towards arts education.
