Fall Feast & Legacy Awards 2026

CARA's fourth annual Fall Feast & Legacy Awards will be held on Thursday, October 15, 2026.

This year, we are thrilled to honor Steffani Jemison and Joan Shigekawa for their enduring contributions to art.

Tables and a limited number of early-bird tickets are now available.

If you are unable to attend but would like to make a donation or underwrite an artist's ticket, you may do so at the link below.

CARA’s annual Fall Feast & Legacy Awards celebrate artists, collaborators, patrons, and friends while raising critical funds for our field-expanding work across research, publishing, exhibitions, fellowships, and public programs.

Presented each year at the Feast, CARA Legacy Awards honor two artists or arts advocates whose practices have meaningfully shaped how art, history, and culture are understood, experienced, and shared. Each recipient receives an unrestricted $10,000 grant in support of their ongoing work and legacy.
