The primary mission of the Governor’s Awards for the Arts in Ohio and Arts Day Luncheon is to increase public awareness of the economic, educational and cultural value of the arts in our state. More than 800 artists, legislators, business leaders, arts managers, board members and patrons from every corner of the state attend the luncheon ceremony. During Arts Day, arts advocates and students visit their state legislators to express the importance of the arts in their daily lives. It serves as an opportunity to thank the legislature for its investment in the arts and to express how that investment translates into artistic excellence in Ohio.
