The Ocean City Arts Center announced the winners in their 2023 Annual Juried Art Show at the artists’ reception held on Friday, November 10. The show runs through November 25.
There were 114 entries this year with 37 selected for the show. It was obvious to the judges that there could have been twice that number selected if only there were more exhibit space to hang the work. This year’s winners were:
Best in Show Linda D’Urbano “Taste of Summer” (watercolor)
2nd Place Teresa Riley “Docked for the Night” (oil)
3rd Place Pamela Scribner “Venice with Gondola” (pen & ink)
Honorable Mentions –
Doreen Khebzou “Sandy Banks” (oil)
Bill Parker “Passing Storm” (pastel)
Eileen Ziegler “Locals” (watercolor)
The judges were Frank Kallop, Visual Artist from Egg Harbor Township; Kira Rizzuto, former director of Accent Gallery and Director of Learning Programs at Art Ed NJ; and, Alicia Mino, Artist and Art Instructor at Atlantic Cape Community College, Cape May.
