The Arts Award was initiated by the faculty and endowed in 1959 by gifts from members of the board of trustees, notably C. Scott Althouse and Sumner Drayer, in honor of William W. Edel, president of the College from 1946 to 1959. Previous Art Award recipients include Robert Frost, John Cage, David Mamet, and Toshiko Takae zu. As part of the award celebration, each recipient visits Dickinson College to share their work and ideas with the community.
