Richland Arts Commission Accepting Nominations For 2025 STAR Awards
- 02/03/26
The Richland Arts Commission is now accepting nominations for the 2025 STAR Awards (Supporting the Arts in Richland), recognizing outstanding local contributions that support and advance the arts in Richland.
Each year, the STAR Awards honor two recipients for their exceptional commitment to the arts:
- One individual, and
- One organization (for-profit or not-for-profit).
Nominees are not required to be Richland residents; however, their work must have made a meaningful and positive impact on
supporting the arts in Richland.
Nominations are due by Thursday, February 26, 2026, at 11:00 p.m.
The Richland Arts Commission will review submitted nominations during a February or March 2026 workshop. Selected recipients will be formally recognized with an award presentation at a Richland City Council meeting in April 2026, as schedules allow.
Please note:
- Recipients may not receive a STAR Award more than once within a five-year period.
- Awards may not be presented if suitable nominations are not received.
A list of past STAR Award recipients and additional information about the nomination process is available on the City’s website at: richlandwa.gov/staraward
For questions or assistance, please contact Recreation Manager, Julie Piper, jpiper@richlandwa.gov, or 509-942-7501.
