Louise Remick Brown Award
Louise Remick Brown was an accomplished artist and co-creator of the Senior Art Exhibit. She was passionate about art, about the people who created it, and about the community in which she lived. In 1986, she joined the Festival as an exhibit sitter. She actively supported senior participation in the Festival and, with Chairpersons Ruth Whitty and Shirley Kupka, went on to establish the Senior Art Exhibit. Louise developed a great love for needlepoint which she exhibited regularly at the Rusty Rudder. Her needlepoint set of dining room chair seat covers, based on the Jazz series of Henri Matisse, became the subject of a Boston Globe Profile in 1987. Louise died in 1996 at the age of 78. The first Louise Remick Brown Award, established and selected by her family, was given during the 1996 Festival of Arts.
