Johnice always offered her support to young artists and others who sought her advice about art techniques. In honor of her legacy, we have established the Artist Awards for emerging young artists. We also use the funds from the sale of Johnice’s art to donate art for the support of various causes and to historic sites. Listed below are recipients of cash awards and donations since Johnice’s transition in 2021.
