It was an honor for me to attend The Carle Honors again this year and I am so proud of our wonderful Museum staff and the work they do to organize this special event.

Congratulations to the 2017 honorees, ARTIST, Ed Young, ANGEL, Dr. John Y. Cole, BRIDGE, Anthea Bell, and MENTOR, Bank Street Writers Lab, represented by Dr. Cynthia Weill. And thank you to author Jack Gantos for presenting the awards and making everyone laugh in the beautiful room under the bridge at Guastavinos!
