The Art Guild’s Billie Faye Brannon was presented with a Kids First Award for April at last night’s Cumberland County School Board meeting. A proclamation was also read along with her award presentation that reads:

“Mrs. Billie Faye Brannon has been a dedicated and active contributor to the arts community for several years. She has worked closely with both the Senior Art and People’s Choice Award programs, providing consistent support and leadership.

A committed member of the Fairfield Glade Art Guild, she has served in various roles within the organization, including working with guild art scholarship applicants to encourage and support the next generation of artists.

In addition to completing several art displays throughout Cumberland County, she is an accomplished artisan herself. Her passion for the arts extends beyond her own practice, as she regularly organizes field trips for the Guild and collaborates with the Art Round-Up group of Cumberland County.

She is also deeply invested in the growth and development of local art educators, playing an active role in ensuring professional development opportunities for art teachers in the area. Mrs. Billie Faye is very deserving of this honor. Congratulations!!”
