Fairfield Community Foundation

What an incredible evening in Fairfield! It was wonderful to look around the room and see so many familiar faces! Community leaders, partners, supporters and friends, all gathered to celebrate the people and organizations helping Fairfield and Fairfield Township thrive.

One of the most meaningful moments of the night, Fairfield Mayor Steve Miller presented a beautiful portrait by artist Stephen Smith honoring Art Pizzano, Fairfield’s respected and deeply loved former city manager. The portrait celebrates Art’s bold leadership, lasting impact and willingness to push the needle to move Fairfield forward. It will remain on display at the Fairfield Community Arts Center, just outside the theater, as a lasting tribute to his service and dedication to the community.

The energy and warmth in the room were powerful reminders of what makes this community so special: people who care deeply, show up for one another and believe in building a stronger future together. The Fairfield Community Foundation is proud to be part of that work and proud to be here for Fairfield and Fairfield Township.
