August 9, 2021

Dear Friends,

The leadership of The King Arts Complex is proud to honor Ann and Ron Pizzuti at its 14th Annual Legends &
Legacies Award Ceremony and Reception.

The event will take place on Thursday, October 7th at 7pm at The Lincoln Theatre. Deidre Hamlar will moderate a
“fireside chat” with the honorees. A VIP reception will immediately follow.

Ann and Ron Pizzuti are among the nation’s foremost collectors of black art with works by over 111 African, Afro-
Cuban and African Americans: Kara Walker, Kehinde Wiley, Mark Bradford, Titus Kaphar, Hank Willis Thomas,
Wangechi Mutu, Lyle Ashton Harris, Kerry James Marshall, Leonardo Drew, Carrie Weems, Derrick Adams, and Julie
Mehretu, among others.

Now a part of the Columbus Museum of Art, The Pizzuti Collection is a magnificent gift from the Pizzuti’s to our
community. It provides a multi-faceted contemporary art program at CMA and elevates Columbus’ art scene.

It is a special privilege to honor this distinguished couple who have made remarkable contributions to the art
world, in Columbus and beyond through their support of artists and generous sharing of their art through loans to
museums worldwide.

Enclosed, please find sponsorship and ticket purchase opportunities. We encourage you to give as generously as
possible and join us the evening of October 7th as we celebrate the extraordinary achievements of Ann and Ron
Pizzuti and support the important educational programs of The King Arts Complex.

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Elaine and Curtis Moody 				                                 Monica and Doug Kridler
