Halsey and Alice were honored by the Association of Performing Arts Professionals on January 13, 2013, and became the first recipients of the:

Halsey & Alice North
Board Alumni Award

In naming the Award for Halsey and Alice and presenting them with the first Award, APAP recognized Halsey and Alice for their nearly 40 years of “generosity of spirit and dedication” to the association and its annual conference, especially their efforts to keep former Board members connected and engaged.

Each year, the award is presented to an APAP Board Alum who has demonstrated in their words and actions the beautiful spirit of generosity and giving, not only on a continuing basis to Association of Performing Arts Professionals, but to the field at large.

About The North Group Inc.

Successful track record nationally. Since 1987, The North Group Inc. has assisted performing arts centers, theaters, arts councils, arts service organizations, and communities across the country with "use" and fundraising feasibility studies, capital and endowment campaigns, annual operating campaigns, solicitor training, strategic planning, board development and retreats, cultural planning, organizational assessments, business plans, and workshops on fundraising, board development, and planning. The North Group Inc. is best known for an integrated approach to organizational planning, board development, and fundraising, using planning efforts as opportunities to involve and excite potential donors.

More than raising money. The North Group specializes in guiding capital and endowment campaigns that: 1) energize those involved – staff, volunteers, communities, downtowns, and regions, 2) give confidence and experience to new generations of leaders, and 3) elevate a community's sense of what it is capable of accomplishing.

Instill residual strength into client arts organizations. During consultancies, The North Group works strategically to enhance the knowledge and skills of organizations' staff, board, and other key leaders to strengthen the groups' ongoing planning and fundraising capacity.

Long-term relationships. Numerous clients have rehired The North Group over the years to help plan for and manage new phases of growth as they build on past successes. In that way, The North Group brings an organic continuity to the process of planning, board development and fundraising.
