Event Overview
The 2026 Visionary Awards is a hallmark event organized by the Southface Institute, taking place on October 15, 2026, at the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta, GA. This event serves as a key fundraising initiative, bringing together business leaders, sustainability advocates, and innovators to recognize and celebrate outstanding contributions to sustainability.
For over 25 years, the Visionary Awards have honored notable figures in the sustainability sector, including Ray C. Anderson and Ambassador Andrew Young. This year, the awards will recognize Kim Bednarek, Executive Director of the Okefenokee Swamp Park, for her leadership and the recent UNESCO World Heritage Site designation of the park.
As a Signature Event for Atlanta Climate Week, the Visionary Awards aim to inspire and mobilize the community towards sustainable practices. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with like-minded individuals and support Southface's mission to promote sustainable homes and communities through education, research, and advocacy.
