NVA Silver Gala to Honor Christine Davis and Community Leaders

Christine Davis, Executive Director of the Carlsbad Village Association, will be honored with the Community Leadership Award at New Village Arts’ 25th Anniversary Silver Gala on Saturday, May 9, 2026, at Scratch Media in Carlsbad. The award recognizes individuals who inspire action, create positive change, and improve the quality of life in the community.

For years, Christine has been a driving force behind the Village’s growth and vitality. She has worked tirelessly to support local businesses, bring people together, and make Carlsbad Village a welcoming place for residents and visitors alike. Her dedication, energy, and care for the community have left a lasting mark on the Village and its people.

The Silver Gala will also celebrate a special group of Changemakers of New Village Arts. These individuals are transforming Carlsbad through innovative business practices, deep community commitment, and meaningful investment in both New Village Arts and the Village area. The Changemakers will be officially announced at an exclusive Patron Event on March 5, 2026, and will be celebrated again during the Silver Gala as part of NVA’s year-long anniversary festivities.

Congratulations to Christine and all of the honorees for their dedication to the Carlsbad community and to the arts. More details regarding tickets, sponsorship opportunities, and event programming can be found by clicking here.
