The Lynnfield Art Guild established the Jeanne Rose Award for Excellence in 2025.
Jeanne Rose passed away in 2024. Her son, Steven, contacted us shortly after her passing to let us know that she was one of the very early members of the Guild. He explained that while she had not participated in many years, she always felt fondly of the Guild. Jeanne Rose Obituary
When we began to receive donations in her memory, we knew we needed to honor her love of art and the Guild in some significant way. The Board decided to create the “Jeanne Rose Award for Excellence.” This is a special monetary award to highlight an exceptional LAG artist regardless of medium. Jeanne just passed in November 2024 and Sue Collins is the first LAG artist to receive this award in May 2025. A very special honor, indeed.
Our first awardee is Sue Collins for her photograph, Magical Glow Aurora Borealis, Lapland, Finland.
