Sense & Color 2017: Winners & Event Photos
This year's exhibition featured over 40 works of art by local artists and photographers. Among the competitors were a dozen returning artists, including 2016 2nd Place winner Sabrina Gilmore, 2016 People's Choice winner Louis Gewirtz, and this year's 17 & Over 1st Place winner Jessica Torres.
An unexpected highlight was a display of art from Dignity Station, an organization which supports and promotes the independence of the homeless and disabled.
Changes to last year's judging procedure resulted in a more streamlined event, and we're already thinking about ways to improve next year's event even more!
