Hands Up! Productions will the Arts Partner Award for their commitment to providing American Sign Language (ASL) interpretations for theatrical performances. The Individual Impact Award will be presented to Charles Horton, Senior Director of Advocacy and Inclusion at Inglis House and former Executive Director of the Mayor's Commission on People with Disabilities.
