Thank you to everyone who participated in JFAA's 61st annual show! Over the course of 6 weeks, we had well over 300 visitors to this exhibition. As part of the exhibition process, we award a "People's Choice" where guests vote on their personal favorite piece from the show.

We are pleased to announce that the "People's Choice Award" goes to Shweta Roth for her piece "Portals". After counting 108 total votes, this piece rose to the top!

To see more of Shweta's work, check out www.sacredsurrender.art or on Instagram.
