About The Organization
Founded By: Freddie L. Poindexter, a member of the world's renowned Mississippi Mass Choir, hosted by The Dream Centre of America, and sponsored in part by local businesses throughout the Golden Triangle Area in MS. The Golden Triangle Music Awards (GTA Awards) is a tax exempt organization under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501 (c) (3).
The Music Awards is one of the largest fundraiser events that helps to provide funding for the Dream Centre of America. The GTA Awards MISSION is to serve at risk families (youth) by developing creativity and engagement through "THE ARTS" to include, music, dance, spoken word, public speaking and more. The program also focuses on instrument skills development, audio engineering, theatrical arts, as well as lighting, video walls and live show management. Full meals are provided to the youth we serve at the end of each day.
Celebrating the Legacy of Great Gospel Artists in the Golden Triangle & Surrounding Areas. The 9th Annual Gospel Awards Celebration held at The Charity Mission Full Gospel Baptist Church in Crawford, MS was a great success with over 1200 people in attendance.
The Music Awards gives back to those who deserve much recognition with a live taped/stream broadcast to the public with as many as 23.5K viewers tuning in to witness the presentation of awards and recognition. Honoring gospel artists, proving help to High School Graduates seeking to earn a degree in the field of Music from the college of their choice and most importantly raising funds to assist with the operation of THE ART's ACADEMY.
Many times, local or home talents are overlooked. With programs such as the Golden Triangle Music Awards we are able to give recognition and present awards of thanks back to those who we sometimes forget to thank for serving, traveling, and representing the Gospel Industry.
Previous year's Celebration featured some of the greatest gospel artists ever heard such as: Mrs. Lisa Knowles Smith with The Noxubee County Mass Choir, Bishop Darrell Petties of Memphis, TN, Mrs. Sierra Ward-Pope of Memphis, TN, Stephania Johnson & The Supreme Voices, Dr. Ebby Myers, Rev. Andrew Cheairs with The Noxubee County Mass Choir, Rev. Alphonso with The Noxubee County Mass Choir, The Hebrew Boys, Armondo Adams & Company, Tim Frierson & Company, The Gospel Sons, The Clark Family, Revised, Annie Caldwell of the Caldwell Singers, James Judon of Itawamba Community College Gospel Choir, The Infamous Walter & Sheryl Zinn "The Zinns", Clark Chapel Men of Praise Mime Team, The Golden Triangle Mass Choir and many more.
We would like to thank all of you for taking time to complete the Gospel Awards Nomination Ballot because you, the fans and families of these gospel artists, determines those who will be honored on the night of this celebration.
Our special guest hostess for last year's celebration was.
Mrs. Lisa Knowles Smith of Tuscaloosa, AL and Pastor Darrel Petties of Memphis, TN
Thanks for your continued support and remember without you we could not continue to do the great things we do.
