Adult Best-in-Show: Samantha Miller’s “Cultivation” |
| |
Since 2004, Embracing Our Differences has used the power of art and prose to promote “Enriching Lives Through Diversity and Inclusion.” One way it achieves this is through its annual, juried international outdoor art exhibition comprising 50 billboard-sized works of art, each accompanied by an inspirational quotation. This year’s response to the call for artwork and inspirational quotations broke last year’s record, with 17,413 entries pouring in from 123 countries and 47 states. Students from 423 schools around the world submitted artwork or quotations to the juried exhibit. The Best-in-Show Adult artwork award went to Samantha Miller from Sarasota. Mia Gonzalez, a 9th grade student from Parrish Community High School in Bradenton, won the Best-in-Show Student award for her art. Alicia Chalmers of Bradenton, won Best-in-Show for her inspirational quotation. The winning quotations and art will be showcased in the 19th annual exhibit, January 15 through April 10, in Sarasota’s Bayfront Park, Five Bayfront Drive, Sarasota.
