Award Winners

All our artists have already won simply by jurying in to this prestigious Festival, but each year we go one step farther and award four exhibiting artists a Special Recognition Award. The award comes with a $500 check and automatic entry to next year's Festival.

The awards are selected by a panel of three highly qualified judges, each of whom rate every artist independently and then gather for a spirited discussion. The four awards are presented at a charming artists' reception on the first night of the Festival.
