Dale Lamphere to Join Arts South Dakota Board

People are the generators that energize the arts throughout South Dakota. In communities across the state, your neighbors are finding innovative ways to encourage, advocate and participate in the arts. Our organization has been fortunate enough to have many of those individuals on our board of directors, helping to shape the future of the creative culture in South Dakota. It’s my pleasure to welcome three of these leaders to our board this month.

Returning to our board is South Dakota Artist Laureate Dale Lamphere. A former member of the South Dakota Arts Council and founding member and past president of Arts South Dakota, Dale has received the Anna Hyatt Huntington award from the Artists Professional League, the South Dakota Governor’s Award in the Arts in 2013, the Artistic Achievement Award from the South Dakota Art Museum in 1991 and was inducted into the South Dakota Hall of Fame in 1987. We’re excited to have him back.
