Juried Show Recap

The Collectif’s 4th Annual Juried Show opened on Friday, 5 June. It started off quiet. The room was empty, though lovely!

That quickly changed as eager art fans arrived . . .

Soon the room was hoppin’, with folks sipping, munching & viewing.

Oh, & talking!

LOTS of art talk going on. Intimate . . .

. . . and less so.

Among friends & families . . .

. . . heated & cool.

Occasionally the conversations were just, plain cozy.

A very positive evening, with happy artists & a very happy hospitality crew.

However, it was a Juried Show. So folks were impatient to know: who won?!?

President Bobi Leutschaft Poitras & VP Yvonne Callaway presented the prizes. Unfortunately, the Number One winner wasn’t able to attend.
