Congratulations to the Winners

July 27th, 2006


This year’s Fresh Ideas juried competition and exhibit is amazing in it’s diversity and demonstration of the depth of talent and creativity among our members. We had 73 pieces accepted, from 32 artists, including 14 new members! I would like to thank all who participated by entering, and all those who helped out in so many ways. It was truly a team effort to be proud of. Kudos to committee members JoAnn Vincent, Pat Leggett, Ken Adair, Tom Smith, Meg Smith, Bruce Schiefelbein and David Mask, and to our chair—Tom Norris, who was called away to a family emergency, and unfortunately missed a lot of the fun. The elegant reception was arranged by Wanda Grice, our hostess extraordinaire— and much appreciated by all who attended. Stay tuned for announcements about Connie Nicholson’s solo show next spring- a big part of the winner’s prize! The show will come down Saturday Aug 5 at 4pm, and pieces can be picked up between 4-6pm, or Sunday Aug 6 from 1-3pm, or contact Meg Smith to arrange a time. Please make sure that your pieces get signed out as you collect them.

  • Second Place: Dan Lattimore “Singapore Bungalow”
