The Natural State's former First Daughter will be honored for her contributions to the performing arts at Ballet Arkansas' Spring Gala in Little Rock in April.
Chelsea Clinton will receive the "Above the Barre" award because of her appreciation for dance as an art form, which began in Arkansas.
Chelsea performed with Ballet Arkansas as a young girl and appeared in several of its productions of The Nutcracker.
Ballet Arkansas' executive director says Chelsea understands that the performing arts holds great value to communities, whether economically, educationally or socially.
Chelsea will be presented the award on April 26.
