Artist of the Year Competition and Exhibition 2023

 

The Los Gatos Art Association has a long-held tradition in which members vote for their peers.

All competing artists could choose one favorite piece of their own art to submit for voting.  All members were invited to vote online for their favorite piece of art. The voting was held by secret ballot in an online survey. There were three place winners and three honorable mentions awarded.

The three place winners received gift certificates for art supplies from University Art. In addition, the winning artists are able to add their award and place title to their art resumes.

The exhibition is posted on LGAA's Instagram Gallery. Click the button below to view all the art in the gallery.
