What does a messy studio mean?
The floor is littered with scraps of foam board, mat board, and bits of canvas strips. The safety goggles are out, sectional frames are – well – sectional still, and the music's cranked to loud.

Great, but should I spring for the trophy?
Here's a different twist, I've been awarded a Bell Ringer award from the Publicity Club of New England. The best-in-category (Special Event: Series Campaign) award is for the Faces and Voices of Autism Photo Exhibition.
Okay, that's not the different twist. The different twist is that I can order a certificate for $15 or a trophy for $125. Hmmmm....

Got the Gold!
The Faces and Voices of Autism traveling exhibition is on the road – somewhere in California, last I heard.

Meanwhile, it's been recognized a little closer to home. The New England Society for Healthcare Communications (NESHCo, for the acronymly inclined) awarded Faces and Voices a best-in-category (Public Relations Projects) Gold award during its annual Lamplighter awards last month.
The Lamplighters are especially notable because they evaluate not just communication, but also outcome. When we (May Institute, the National Autism Center, and Andrew Child Photography) set-out to turn a body of work into an exhibition two years ago we approached it with a communication strategy. Rather than pulling together a group of attractive photographs, we identified the target audience groups and key messages we wanted to address. Among the groups were legislators, professionals who work in special needs fields, and the general public. One of the key goals was simply to make autism personal – to move people in a deeper and more meaningful way than facts and statistics can alone.

What makes the Lamplighter Gold award especially gratifying is the peer acknowledgement that we hit our mark, scoring 98 out of a possible 100.
