Owensboro Art Guild exhibition highlights regional talent, awards Best in Show to Hast

The Owensboro Art Guild recently held its 64th Annual Juried Exhibition at the Owensboro Museum of Fine Art, marking a record-breaking year for both participation and prize money. Juror Daniel Pfalzgraf selected 57 works from 81 entries across Kentucky, Indiana, and Tennessee, with over $8,000 in merit and purchase awards distributed. Local artist Vicki Hast secured the Best in Show title for her mixed-media sculpture "A Willow Orb," a non-utilitarian piece woven from willow she cultivates and harvests herself.
