A Message from the National Art Chair

I am sorry that we are not yet able to come together to celebrate and view the wonderfully diverse artwork submitted to the 50th Biennial Art Show, and to celebrate the winners of the 2019 Vinnie Ream Art Competition. In the meantime, you may view the selected Biennial artwork and the Vinnie Ream winning pieces below, via a YouTube slideshow.

The Biennial artwork is in alphabetical order by title and has not yet been judged for awards. As soon as restrictions are lifted in Washington, D.C., I will be there to hang the artwork in the Pen Arts Gallery and invite our judge, Barbara Wolanin, to view it and judge it for awards.

I will also take a video of the work as it hangs in our Pen Arts Gallery ready for public viewing. The video will be posted to the website at that time. I am eager for that day to come, but until then, please be patient and stay safe and well.

Mary Lou Griffin, National Art Chair
