TRAHC Announces 25th Annual Juried Exhibition Winners

It was a festive evening on Saturday, July 13 as TRAHC hosted the opening reception for the 25th Annual Regional Juried Exhibition in Cabe Hall at the Regional Arts Center. The reception and the exhibition were both sponsored by E-Z Mart Stores, Inc. The public and art patrons joined TRAHC Staff and WFA volunteers in celebrating all the artists and artwork selected for display in this year's Silver Anniversary event.

All submissions were reviewed and judged by Steven Ochs, Honor Professor of Art at Southern Arkansas University. This year's winners include:

Best of Show - Angela Davis Johnson - $1,000.00
Cindy Holmes - 1st Place - $750.00
Nicole Brisco - 2nd Place - $500.00
Michael Sherbert - 3rd Place - $300.00
Arthur Pletcher - 4th Place - $200.00

This year's Yates Collection Purchase Award Winner ($1,000.00) is M. M. Long. That artwork will become part of the permanent collection at the Regional Arts Center.

Congratulations to all the artists who are featured in the show and to all those who participated in making this event a success. Thank you to E-Z Mart for their generous support of this exhibition.
