Pikes Peak Arts Council award winners announced
You may or may not have watched the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night, but another ceremony took place earlier that day as the Pikes Peak Arts Council announced winners in its Awards for Excellence in the Arts.

The big winners were The Unicorn, the Gorgon and the Manticore, a production of the Colorado's Classical Youth Ballet, the Colorado Vocal Arts Ensemble and the Chamber Orchestra of the Springs; the Star Bar Players' Night and Her Stars; and the Fine Arts Center Theatre Company's Into the Woods. Each took two awards.

The coolest announcement came as The Nicotine Fits, a prominent local punk act, took home the prize for Best Popular Music (group). Other notable winners: Karen Sucharski for Best Performance Poet; Benjamin Pratt for Best Popular Music (solo); and Herman Raymond, for Best Artist. - PF
