2025 ArtsQuest Volunteer Plate Ceremony 

On the evening of April 21^st, we celebrated with some of our most dedicated volunteers at our annual Plate Ceremony for those who have completed 1000+ hours of service here at ArtsQuest. It was a wonderful evening filled with fun and laughs, plentiful food, speeches by our very own Cory Stevens and our President & CEO Kassie Hilgert and most importantly, great people! Their efforts will be forever immortalized with a custom-made glass plate located on the 2nd floor stairs that lead into the Musikfest Cafe! Thank you to all who attended to make this such an enjoyable event! 

I could not be happier to introduce the new members of the 1000+ hour club!

Also, I’d like to give a huge shoutout to those who have added another flame onto their plate for hitting an additional 1000-hour milestone!
