MartinArts Awards
Since 2003, the MartinArts Awards have been a signature event of MartinArts celebrating remarkable achievements in the arts, volunteerism, and philanthropy in Martin County, which inspire a passion for and participation in the arts in our community. The recipient of this award will be an individual who not only actively practices their chosen art forms, but also volunteers their time, advocates for the arts, and is deeply committed to the nonprofit(s) that benefit from their participation.
Nominees will be evaluated on Artistic Excellence and Civic Responsibility/Leadership, based on the information submitted in their nominee profile. Nominees profiles include the following: current contact information, answering a few short questions, provide supporting documents, and samples of your artistic creations or performances. Please try to avoid duplication of answers and be specific. Write in full sentences and it's recommended to have someone review your application before submission. Details from Nominee profiles may be used in event spotlights and the program book.
All Nominees must conduct most of their civic activities in Martin County.
Student Nominees: Student nominees must be a Martin County resident that entered their senior year of high school in August 2025. A scholarship will be given to the recipient in each student category. All Student Nominees will be required to be interviewed by our Judges - additional details and interview date will be sent separately.
