49th Annual Juried Exhibition Winners

Published on 4/12/2019

We are very proud of our 49th Annual Exhibition, juried by M. E. (Mike) Bailey which will be displayed at the Historic Arkansas Museum in downtown Little Rock through July 7, 2019.  Our juror commented that the caliber of this show is equal to that of any national show. You will get only the faintest glimpse of the quality of the pieces in the show from the beautiful catalog and photo album on our Annual Juried Exhibition page.  You must experience it in person! Congratulations to the new 2019 MSW Signature members (Gary Johnson and Gary Simmons) and to the recently named Diamond members (Catherine Caldwell, Jeannie Knod Edwards, Virginia Haines, Monika Pate, and Luanne Stone) And a big THANK YOU to the hard-working chairs of this show Donna Twyford and Lyn Whaley and their committee and Peyton Bishop of Ways and Means.
