Greetings once again, VWS members

We had a large entry for the Southern Vermont Vermont Arts Center juried show. More than 60 works. Here are the results- because of the small space there, only 27 works were chosen amongst a fine selection. Congratulations to all, and many thanks to everyone who sent entries.
