Besides the presentation of awards, the event will include entertainment and presentations and demonstrations from more than 20 different faiths in the metropolitan community, as well as interactive dialogue activities.
The Steve Jeffers Interfaith Leadership Award (named in honor of the late Director of Spirituality in Health of Shawnee Mission Medical Center) will be awarded to Rev. Dr. Wallace Hartsfield, Sr., former pastor of Metropolitan Missionary Baptist Church, in Kansas City, Missouri, as well as pastorates throughout the United States. He has been active at the local and national levels of the Congress of National Black Churches, has served in various civic positions at the local and state level, and is a member of the Executive Board of the Jazz District Redevelopment Corporation.
The Table of Faiths award, given to an organization that exhibits interfaith values in the community, will be presented to The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. The contributions made by the Nelson-Atkins to interfaith and intercultural education and understanding is exhibited through its emphasis on works of great cultural, as well as artistic, significance, in special exhibits like 2014's Echoes: Islamic Art & Contemporary Artists, Roads to Arabia, and The Plains Indians: Artists of Earth and Sky as well as in its permanent collection.
