Oprah Winfrey’s “Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation Award” Certificate of Authenticity

Calligraphy and Handmade Envelope

On May 15, 2019, the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation hosted a celebration for the unveiling of the new Statue of Liberty Museum on Liberty Island. Through an exclusive partnership with the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation, Inc., Liberty Ambassador Studio designs and creates special awards for the Foundation and other exclusive clients. The awards are handcrafted from copper and iron, preserved from the 1984 restorations of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island Monuments.

Throughout my calligraphy career, I’ve had the privilege of writing many beautiful names. When I was asked by Liberty Ambassador Studio to create the certificate of authenticity for the Inaugural “Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation Award” for Oprah Winfrey, I had to pinch myself. She is one of my heroes! She has inspired and empowered so many people around the world. Did you know that she started her television career at News Channel 5 right here in Nashville?
