This award fund is to raise money for the annual art show Les Senesac Creativity AwardDear family and friends of Les, Les will be remembered by all of us in many ways, her great sense of humor, her fastidiousness, her love and devotion to her family, her great circle of friends who she loved and cherished and her boundless creativity. Les could take nothing and anything and create a wonderful and unique work of art. Her ability to see and then create work from everyday objects and discarded “junk” was truly one of her finest talents. To celebrate this creativity we have decided to continue her legacy by creating and funding a new award at a nationally ranked art show in Gainesville, Florida. The Downtown Festival and Art Show is held annually in the late fall in downtown Gainesville. ” For the past three years, Sunshine Artist magazine has recognized the festival as one of the top 30 fairs and festivals in the country, naming it No. 16 in 2011. Greg Lawler’s Art Fair SourceBook ranked it No. 27 among the top 100 fine art festivals in the nationwide.” The “Les Senesac Creativity Award “will be presented to an artist who shows unique creativity within their own medium. Thus, it can be awarded to any artist, in any medium. The show always has two judges who view the show and choose the other awards, and they will choose the winner for this award as well. We will present the chosen artist with a ribbon and a minimum $300.00 award; we plan to make this an annual award. An account has been established to accept donations, and help fund this award, to keep Les’s creativity spirit alive. We would be honored if you choose to make a contribution to this annual award in memory of Les and her gift to us all through her art. To keep costs and red tape to a minimum we have opened a simple account, the” Les Senesac Creativity Award”, will be printed on the checks, but because of many reasons, security and bank laws, to name a few , checks have to be written to Bob Senesac with a notation on the memo line, and should be in US dollars. We have also set up a web site, a place to tell stories, share memories, and photos. For your convenience we have added a donation button on the site which will accept PayPal and credit cards. The name of the site is www.moreartfromles.weebly.com , please visit and share the site, however, please do not post this on any Facebook or social media sites, use the forum to add suggestions, ask questions or just to say hello or email [email protected]. We will keep it updated with all the recent news about the award and in the fall announce the first winner. The Senesac family is very grateful for all of Les’s friends and extended family who supported and loved her, she is and will be greatly missed by all, but her spirit and love of life will be forever cherished. We feel this award is one small way we can share and celebrate her passion for life and the arts. To contact us email [email protected] with any questions or suggestions. Thank you all from the entire Senesac family!
