Each year, the Ampersand Inn names its rooms in order to recognize individuals who have made a difference in the lives of others – whether she/he/they have influenced the life of one person, a group of people, an organization, a neighborhood, or a place of work. Our 11 amazing honorees for 2025 were nominated by community members and Ampersand guests. We encourage you to think about people you would like to honor in 2026 – nomination forms will be available in January and new rooms named in April. Please click on each name to read about our wonderful honorees!
