Thank you to our 2023 Judges for Awards

SHAUNA SHANE (Art Judge) artworks are saturated with light and color whether working in watercolor, oil, or pastel. “The artistic journey is like a musical instrument, taking time and practice to master.” Shauna has received major awards in international competitions and is a Signature Member of Hudson Valley Art Association, Academic Art League, CT Pastel Society, and New England Watercolor Society.


LINDA JONES (Jewelry Judge) creates wearable art in the form of bracelets, earrings, and pendants, from shaping, inscribing, or piercing the metal, to filing, polishing, and oxidizing – all in the service of creating unique designs. Each piece is created with a rhythm, a jazzy pair of earrings, a classical necklace, or a tribal bohemian bracelet. 


LIZ BLODGETT (Craft Judge) is a craftsperson and longtime advocate for craft education. She earned her BFA at Virginia Commonwealth University and pursued her master’s degree in art education at The Ohio State University. As a ceramic artist with a background in printmaking, Liz’s work uses techniques of majolica, sgraffito, water etching, and lamination to create illustrative imagery of beetles, moths, and tiny oddities in nature.


    Thank you to our exhibitors, food and special event vendors, and  dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers and staff.
