The Raymond J. Hanley Fellowship

Raymond J. Hanley

At the Greater Columbus Arts Council’s 27th annual Community Arts Partnership Awards (October 14, 2010) it was announced that this year’s Raymond J. Hanley Fellowship would go to actor/director/producer Geoffrey Nelson.

The $10,000 award from the Columbus Arts Endowment, named in memory of the late President of GCAC, goes to an individual artist in any field “who lives or works in the Columbus area and who has demonstrated an unusual level of achievement.”

The recipient of the award is selected by an anonymous panel of judges and by the trustees of the Columbus Arts Endowment.

Nelson was also the director of Pierce to the Soul, one of the five projects nominated for the GCAC Artistic Excellence Award.
