The Michigan Music Education Association (MMEA) is pleased to announce our 2022 Award Recipients:

Cathy Fox, 2022 Music Educator of the Year
Ms. Fox is recognized as an individual who has served her students, communities, and profession in an
exemplary manner.

Carin McEvoy, 2022 Award of Merit
Mrs. McEvoy is recognized as an individual who has given exemplary service to the Michigan Music
Education Association and music education in Michigan.

Historically, MMEA’s awards were presented at the MMEA Social Hour, to be held at the annual
Michigan Music Conference (MMC) in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Music teachers from across Michigan,
as well as special guests from the recipients’ schools, would be on hand to witness and assist with the
award presentations. However, in light of the on-going pandemic, MMEA leadership recognizes that
many colleagues and guests cannot be in attendance. Therefore, MMEA will schedule this recognition for
next year’s MMC, when friends and colleagues are in a better position to attend and celebrate these
amazing music educators’ significant successes. Congratulations to these fine music educators and
supporters!
