Connie Britton has one more title to add to her résumé. She's not only a several-time Golden Globes and Emmy nominee, but now, according to The Savannah College of Art and Design, Connie is an icon. At the aTVfest: a Digital Media Experience, hosted by SCAD, being held on February 6th through February 8th, the Nashville star will be honored with this year's Icon Award.

How about we give her a round of applause—because that seems pretty darn major. The conference, held in Atlanta, Georgia, hosts a variety of panels featuring screenings and sneak peeks of some of the newest shows coming to TV, with celeb, director, and producer-attended Q&As proceeding.
