Nominees may be well known or quietly influential through leadership, service, or pioneering spirit.
Nomination applications are available below or at the front desk of the Carson Valley Museum & Cultural Center. Completed forms must be submitted by 4:00 p.m. on Friday, February 20, 2026.
Honorees will be recognized at a free public program and reception on Saturday, March 28, at 2:00 p.m. at the Carson Valley Museum & Cultural Center. Doors open at 1:00 p.m. Light refreshments refreshments will be served. Come early and enjoy the museum!
