Each year
at the National convention state winners are represented
for the National Art competition. The theme is: “Strengthening

original work of the artist. (Copyrighted material

There is
a $25 entrance fee if you are selected to represent
Oregon in the National competition. There will also
be a luncheon held in November for the winners to
talk more about the national competition and Gala

Hotel acknowledging all of the state winners.
We want
to make it possible for more women artist to have
this opportunity by increasing the scope of the show
each year. Please tell other artists that you may
know throughout the state or in Vancouver area.
