Prince Rupert City Councillor Barry Cunningham paid his own tribute to the three as part of Monday's City Council session, noting of their achievements and the strong impact that they all have had on the arts scene over the years in the community.
"I had the pleasure of attending the Arts Council Awards ceremonies on Sunday and I would just like to point out that three of the people who got the awards were Rudy Kelly, Joan Mostad and Treena Decker.
All well deserved they've one a lot for theatre, writing and painting in this town. So it's nice to see them get recognized and I think the community should hear about it as well"
