WVALAA was founded in 2004 as a collaboration between the MWA, Wisconsin Visual Artists (WVA), and the Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters, the Awards are essentially the in-state “Hall of Fame” for individuals, groups and organizations who have supported the visual arts with distinction. The 2012 WVALAA co- chairs are Graeme Reid from MWA, Randall Brendt from the Wisconsin Academy, and Christine Style from WVA. The WVALAA selection committee consisted of 15 Wisconsin art professionals. The 2012 WVALAA was made possible with financial support from the three WVA chapters, ABEA (African American Artists Beginning to Educate Americans About African-American Art), AC Art Association and the League of Milwaukee Artists, along with support from the Museum of Wisconsin Art, the Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts, and Letters, and individual donors.
