More than 260 people joined to celebrate this year's winners of the 15th annual Milley Awards for Creative Achievement.

The Milley Award is a bronze statuette created by John Libberton of Sausalito.

The Milleys are sponsored by the Mill Valley Art Commission and produced by the Milley Awards Board of Directors, a volunteer community group. Nominations are open throughout the year and judges change annually. The award honors those who, through their accomplishments in the arts, have brought honor to the Mill Valley community. They have done this through their talents and actions in the state, national or international arenas.
