Nominations for Community Storytellers Award Due April 28
Geneva, N.Y.: Historic Geneva is seeking nominations of individuals, businesses, and non-profit organizations who excel at telling our community’s stories in innovative and meaningful ways. Geneva is filled with stories. While Historic Geneva is the primary repository of these stories, we are not the only storytellers. Whether it’s an ongoing effort or a one-time project, there are individuals, businesses, and organizations throughout the community who are telling stories from Geneva’s past and present.
In the 2022 inaugural awards, Historic Geneva recognized storytellers Lake Drum Brewing, Geneva Public Library, and for From Beyond: Geneva’s Unheard Voices, the students Anthony Bray ‘23, Samari Brown ‘24, Sal Fabio ‘22, Christina Roc ‘24, and Professor Chris Woodworth from Hobart and William Smith Colleges.
The 2023 honorees will be acknowledged on Thursday, June 15 at Rose Hill Mansion during the Historic Geneva Annual Meeting. Nominations must be submitted by this Friday, April 28.
Nomination forms can be found online at https://historicgeneva.org/about-us/geneva-storytellers/. They can be submitted online or downloaded and emailed with “Geneva Storytellers” in the subject line to director@historicgeneva.org. Forms can also be printed and mailed to Historic Geneva, 543 South Main Street, Geneva, NY 14456.
Historic Geneva, formerly the Geneva Historical Society, tells the stories of Geneva, New York at the Geneva History Museum, Rose Hill Mansion, and Johnston House, and online at historicgeneva.org.
