March 17 - April 19, 2000
This is our annual juried art competition. Open to all artists and in 2000 it was juried by Margarida Kendall Hull, not only a brilliant Washington artist but also a respected Professor of Art at George Mason University. We hold this competition once a year as a means to look at work by artists who otherwise may not get exhibition opportunities in the Washington area. About 275 entries are usually received and about 25 artists are usually selected by the independent juror. Over $1,500 are awarded in cash prizes and the Best of Show winner will exhibit in a solo show in 2001. Other award winners will also be invited to exhibit in group shows next year! Click here for more information and an entry form for next year's competition. This year, Prof. Kendall Hull selected 26 entries from 23 different artists. An opening reception for all artists was held on Friday, March 17, 2000 from 6-9 PM. Read the great review of this show in the Washington Post.Some work is still available for sale. Please contact the Fraser Gallery for availability and prices, which range from $200 to $6,000.
