What an incredible evening at the 44th Distinguished Young Women of Rutherford County program.

We celebrated an unforgettable year with our 2026 Distinguished Young Woman, Ava Garland, as she said farewell. At the end of the evening, Ava Miller was selected as the 2027 Distinguished Young Woman of Rutherford County—an exciting new chapter begins.

The night truly captured the beauty of individuality with this year’s theme, “The Art of Being You.” From start to finish, the audience was entertained by 10 Little Sisters, 8 Hasbeens, and 7 outstanding participants, each bringing their own unique spark to the stage.

Congratulations to all who made this evening so special!
