Each year, Colorscape Chenango, a local arts festival, presents a COLORS-CAPE Award to thank a very special person or business for their support. The 2007 COLORS-CAPE plaque was presented on Sat., September 8 to Golden Artist Colors, Inc. Mark and Barbara Golden, along with Nancy Root accepted the award on behalf of all the GOLDEN employee owners. Generous supporters since the festival’s beginnings 13 years ago, Golden Artist Colors’ staff has given their time, talents, and many gallons of paint to the event. Each year, Colorscape participants look forward to producing their own original works of art with the donated paint from GOLDEN.
