Artist of the Year

Founded in 1964, the Sanford Brush & Palette Club (SBPC) established the Artist of the Year award to recognize artists who have demonstrated exceptional creativity and talent.  To be considered today, the artist must be an active member for at least three (3) years; have chaired a committee or served on one; and participated in the Annual Art Show at least twice. In addition, the artist must have produced a significant body of work.

The Nominating Committee reviews the qualifications of the nominee(s) and proposes the candidate(s) to the general membership at the year end meeting in November for a final vote.  The chosen artist is honored at a private reception and his/her artwork is displayed at a local venue.
