Newarker Named NJPAC's Top Volunteer

A Newarker was recently recognized for her volunteer work at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center .

Last week Adilah Quddus was presented with the Kandice Dickinson Award for Volunteerism during the arts center’s volunteer dinner at Prudential Hall. The award is named for a longtime volunteer who made NJPAC “her second home,” the center said in a statement.

“This volunteer and member of NJPAC has been involved in so many areas of NJPAC, that is it difficult to list them all,” said Ginny Bowers Coleman, the director of volunteer services. “In 2001, she transitioned from being a former usher to being the volunteer you call when you need someone fast and reliable.  Her fellow volunteers say, ‘She’s a good worker, dedicated and pleasant to work with.’”
