🎉 Congratulations Board Chair and Festival Co-Founder, Andy Schildhorn! 🎉

Andy, co-founder and board chair of the Fort Langley Jazz & Arts Festival, was recently honoured with the HD Stafford Good Citizen of the Year Award at the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce annual holiday dinner. 🏆

Since 1980, this award has celebrated individuals who make an extraordinary impact on Langley, reflecting Harold Stafford’s legacy of fostering unity and positive change.

Andy’s decades of service to Langley’s nonprofits and community initiatives have left a huge impression on our region.
