The David Award acknowledges those artists utilizing their vision, talent and skill to produce a message and bring creative solutions.
King David of the Bible was a warrior, a political leader, a businessperson, an architect and builder, a supporter of artists and craftsman and was himself a great artist. David wrote, played and sang timeless songs/Psalms. His psalms had message and brought healing, insight and action.
These characteristics inspired Michelangelo's 'David'.
