The Creative Engagement Award presented by Florida Assisted Living Association celebrates someone who has not only made the arts an important part of her life but shares the many benefits of creative engagement by encouraging and supporting others in their artistic pursuits.

Our winner is a life-long musician whose passion is creating opportunity for others to make music. She currently leads the Young at Heart Chorale of the Bach Festival Society of Winter Park and has performed in the Bach Festival Choir for 43 seasons. She strives for and expects excellence while giving grace and encouragement along the way. She is a humble, but strong woman who inspires all around her to get off the couch and get into life.
