​

Our Spring exhibition was held at the Bethesda Cafe Gallery in St. Paul.  We had 43 entries in the show and our juror, Bonnie Lauber-Westover, gave a detailed critique of the winners and after the presentation she stayed to comment on any painting should the artist request it.   Besides the usual awards we had 3 People's Choice awards with a first place and two tied for second place.  Gary Carabio's oil painting, "Beating the Heat", was purchased by Bethesda Hospital to add to their collection and Mary Ann Morgan's "Quiet Commotion" was sold to a private collector.  Congratulations to all!

 

Here are the award winners:
