Boca Raton Museum of Art’s acclaimed Annual Juried Art Festival celebrated its 27th year by once again bringing the art scene into Downtown Boca. The free two-day event was held on Saturday and Sunday, February 9 & 10 from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
The Juried Art Festival included artists from across the United States, who showcased a lively, inventive, and exciting array of artwork. The Annual Outdoor Juried Art Festival gave tens of thousands of visitors a chance to see (and purchase) works of art on display in Mizner Park. Over 200 artists were selected to participate in the event, which included painting, sculpture, jewelry, wood, fiber, photography, ceramics/pottery, mixed media, graphic design, crafts, and glass.
Ten artists were awarded monetary prizes during the festival, for Best in Show and nine Merit Awards. Kathleen Goncharov, Curator of Exhibitions & Audience Engagement at the Boca Museum served as judge. Goncharov has previously served as Curator at The New School in New York, Public Art Curator at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Curator of Contemporary Art at the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University, and as Curator at the Judith K. and David J. Brodsky Center for Innovative Editions at Rutgers University.
The Annual Juried Art Festival was presented in partnership with the City of Boca Raton, Mizner Park, and South Florida Sun-Sentinel. |
