maturity and skill in their work. The winners will receive a solo
exhibit of their work in the 2010/11 exhibition year. To be considered
for an award, artists must submit 10 slides or images on CD, a slide
script, an artist statement, and an artist resume with their Members’ Show
artwork submission. This facet of the Members’ Exhibition is open to all
artists. It is an option and does not affect regular submissions to the
exhibit. Other awards including “Best In Show” will also be awarded.
