The Center's 2023 New Year Staff Art Contest: Emergence

To kick off the new year, we held an art competition amongst our talented staff this January. The entire staff was invited to enter the competition, using any method, form, material or approach they preferred to capture the theme of “emergence”. Creations were submitted and after our vote, we are proud to share the winning entry from Associate Paintings Conservator Rebecca Vodehnal, the runner-up entry by Senior Conservation Framer Scott Dietrich. Cheers to 2023!
