CITY ART SHOW WINNERS

The Arts Council of the Blue Ridge has announced the winners of the 14th annual Roanoke City Art Show, on display through July 11 at the Art Museum of Western Virginia in Roanoke's Center in the Square.

Winning Best in Show was Roanoke artist Ben Flora for an untitled mixed media piece. Flora picked up a $500 cash prize as a reward.

Five $200 Awards of Excellence were presented to Susan Bidwell of Huddleston for her photograph ``Breakfast Feud''; Carolyn Eyler of Abingdon for ``March!'', a three-dimensional piece of wood, lights and paper; Page Hazelgrove, originally from Roanoke, for her glass sculpture titled ``Container/Contained''; Jim Hudson of Boones Mill for ``Bowling Ball Table''; and Peggy Ann Turner of Blacksburg for ``Women's Repair Kit.''

The show was judged by John Perreault, senior curator of the American Craft Museum.

A $100 prize is yet to be awarded. This is the People's Choice for Best in Show, and will be chosen by museum visitors.
