Historic First Presbyterian Church of Clarkesville, Georgia, was built in 1848 by Jarvis Van Buren, a first cousin of President Martin Van Buren. The first pipe organ in the building was installed in the rear gallery by the Greenwood Pipe Organ Company in 1983.
Three finalists were selected and the church has honored each of them with the distinction of being a 2020 finalist and an award to each of a third of the total prize money.
