e r a e w r e Toget h ArtsWestchester.
FROM THE CEO This is a perfect time to celebrate the arts. We just learned that, according to Americans for the Arts’ most recent report, Westchester arts generate $182 million annually in economic benefits for our area – a staggering number! There is no doubt that our honorees tonight, Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins and Westchester County Executive George Latimer, have been on the frontlines of making this happen. They have been our loyal partners in good times and in bad, and they have made the arts a central factor in their vision for the County and State, and we salute them. Please join me tonight as we highlight the promising future of the arts supported by a burgeoning creative economy. With artists, designers, writers, and cinematographers streaming north to Westchester for more affordable living and working conditions; public art proliferating in open spaces and developments, and business leaders seeking workers with innovative and creative skills, the arts have never been more sought after. Thanks to all of you and to the strong leadership of our honorees, the opportunity is now to make Westchester the Creative Capital of New York State. What a vision for the future! Janet T. Langsam (photo credit: 914 Inc.)
– Janet T. Langsam CEO, ArtsWestchester
FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Friends:
Thank you for helping us keep the arts rockin’ as they have been this year. We kicked off the fall season with the record-setting JazzFest in downtown White Plains attracting more than 3,000 people. And this month, the Crossing Borders Revisited exhibition opened in ArtsWestchester’s Gallery, celebrating the diverse cultures of our community which we all appreciate. No wonder a newly published report reveals that the arts generated $182 million in economic benefits for Westchester annually. We could not be happier. This is a time to say ‘thank you’ to my fellow Board members and to all of you who recognize the value of the arts. We are particularly grateful to our gala honorees, NYS Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins and Westchester County Executive George Latimer, for their unwavering support of arts and culture as a vital part of the fabric of this State and County. Surely, they deserve our applause. Marie Smith (photo credit: Susan Nagib)
We look forward to your continued support so that the arts can keep ‘rockin.’
– Marie Smith Board President, ArtsWestchester

ARTSWESTCHESTER SALUTES:
Andrea Stewart-Cousins, NEW YORK STATE SENATE MAJORITY LEADER
New York State Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins has been widely recognized as a trailblazer in local and state government and a champion for both progressive action and the arts. In her first year as Senate Majority Leader, Stewart-Cousins led the most productive legislative session in state history. In 2012, she became the first African American woman to lead a New York State legislative conference. In 2019, she shattered the glass ceiling when her peers elected her as Temporary President and Majority Leader of the State Senate. Majority Leader Stewart-Cousins has been honored with hundreds of awards for her extensive legislative work and community service in the state. Now, Westchester County’s cultural community joins ArtsWestchester in thanking the Majority Leader for her extraordinary leadership and investment in the arts in the county and throughout New York State. At a most critical time, when the arts were shuttered due to the pandemic, Stewart-Cousins had the vision to invest in the recovery of the arts sector by allocating $1 million to ArtsWestchester for its cultural regrant program. She has maintained this investment in Westchester’s arts community for three years and expanded her commitment to New York State’s arts community by allocating $10 million to arts councils like ArtsWestchester in Syracuse, Buffalo, the Capital Regions and others throughout the state. We salute Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins for her vision and leadership in arts and culture, for being a bright light who has helped to keep the arts alive and vibrant, and for (literally!) dancing in the streets with us as we work to share the joy and power of the arts with the residents and visitors to Westchester County.

ARTSWESTCHESTER SALUTES:
George Latimer,
WESTCHESTER COUNTY EXECUTIVE For more than 30 years, County Executive George Latimer has been working to enhance Westchester County’s economy and quality of life for residents and visitors – and the arts have always been on his agenda. Since his early days as a county legislator, later as Chairman of the Board of Legislators, a New York State Assemblyman and New York State Senator, County Executive Latimer has been vocal about his belief that the arts are part of what makes Westchester unique and successful. As a resident of Rye for 35 years, he has always considered the Sound Shore cultural community his “spiritual home,” often frequenting exhibitions at The Rye Arts Center, enjoying music at the Emelin Theatre and attending arts events at the Mamaroneck Artists Guild. During his administration, County Legislator Latimer has increased the County’s support of the Art$WChallenge Grants program, a public/private partnership that provides matching grants to arts groups that raise new private funds, and he has also increased his investment in other key ArtsWestchester programs, including the ArtsMobile. The County Executive and his colleagues on the Westchester County Board of Legislators agree that the future of America, and of Westchester County, comes when we invest in programs and opportunities for residents that address their quality-of-life aspirations. Thanks to decades of leadership and support by County Executive Latimer, Westchester County is poised to become one of New York’s most creative economies, with fast-growing employment in the arts & culture sector and an economic impact of more than $182 million annually.
