Announcing the Award Winners of the 69th Annual Juried Art Show
The Perkiomen Valley Art Center is proud to recognize the outstanding artists selected for honors in this year's exhibition at The Hill School Boyer Gallery. With exceptional submissions and remarkable creative vision on display, our juror, Bradley Hendershot, faced the difficult task of selecting award recipients from an impressive and diverse body of work.
Bravo to the artists whose work stood out — and thank you to everyone who participated, donated and volunteered to make the 69th Annual Juried Show a huge success! Thank you also to the Hill School for hosting the event and student musician Ambrose Cole for the wonderful piano music.
RECORD TURNOUT! ✨
Thank you to everyone who joined us — this year’s opening reception had our highest attendance ever! Your support keeps the arts thriving in our community. ❤️
