2024 Spring Juried Exhibition
Our 87th Spring Juried Exhibition was held at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum on April 16, 2024. Our reception was a special occasion with a lovely display of art and a delicious Mediterranean platter with roasted vegetables, a variety of cheeses, olives and crostini and chocolate and carrot cupcakes. Marie Panlener made a slide ware presentation which was shown on two large screens. Our juror Suz Galloway's criteria for good art includes composition, color, value, direction, shape, size, texture and line. Below are the award winners.
