Representatives of Yaddo, from left, Candace Wait, Steve Dennin, Tristan Kirvin, and Lynn Farnenell, accept an award from Dee Sarno, chairwoman of SaratogaArtsFest\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

SaratogaArtsFest presented its Arts Star
\nAward for 2015 to Yaddo, the famed artists’
\ncommunity located on a 400-acre estate in
\nSaratoga Springs.
\nThe award was presented recently at the
\nArtsFest Prelude fundraiser event at the
\nSaratoga National Golf Club.<\/p>\n

Yaddo was founded in 1900 by the financier
\nSpencer Trask and his wife, Katrina, a poet.
\nIts mission is to nurture the creative process
\nby providing an opportunity for artists to work
\nwithout interruption in a supportive environment.<\/p>\n

Over the years the community has housed
\nmore that 5,500 artists.
\n“SaratogaArtsFest is proud to honor Yaddo
\nfor its amazing support of artists for over a
\ncentury,” said Dee Sarno, chairwoman of the
\nArtsFest board. “We applaud the staff at Yaddo
\nfor their dedicated work, passion, and daring
\ncommitment in giving artists the freedom and
\npower to create.<\/p>\n

Yaddo staff members Lynn Farenell, director
\nof annual giving; Tristan Kirvin, communications
\nand event manager; Steve Dennin, development
\ndirector; and Candace Wait, program
\ndirector, were on hand to accept the award.<\/p>\n

Farenell read a statement from Yaddo
\nPresident Elaina Richardson, who was unable
\nto attend the event.<\/p>\n

“This is an exciting time for Yaddo, full of
\npromise as well as a challenge or two, and given
\ncoherence by our commitment to two resonant
\nthemes: preserving our past and building a
\nvibrant future,” she said. “We’ve just broken
\nground on five new live-work studios, an exhilarating
\nand highly visible way of communicating
\nYaddo’s dedication to providing the highestquality
\nenvironment for creative endeavors.”<\/p>\n

Proceeds from the Prelude benefit will help
\nsupport the ArtsFestFriday events beginning
\nin September. Said Sarno, “SaratogaArtsFest
\nthanks the many businesses and patrons who
\nsupported the Prelude event, especially our
\nmajor sponsors, Marcia and Jerry MacDonald,
\nDenise Polit and Alan Janosy, and Camelot Copy
\nand Print Center in Albany.”<\/p>\n

Prior to the fall events, the ArtsFest will
\ncelebrate the Saratoga Springs centennial
\nwith varied arts events in downtown Saratoga
\nSprings on Saturday and Sunday, June 13 and
\n14. For more information, visit www.saratogaartsfest.org.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
