Best of Show: Anna Lou Quarters displaying her Old Fashioned Quilt Afghan Flower Basket
Painting First Place: Helen Allen displaying the California Dream Tree
Photography First Place: Carmen McIntire displaying the Durango Silverton Train
Fiber Arts First Place: Wildah Lee displaying her Square Lap Throw
Needlework First Place: Anna Lou Quarters displaying her Friendship Quilt The winners will be submitted to the Presbyterian Manors home office to be judged against entries from throughout the Presbyterian Manors system of 17 not-for-profit communities in Kansas and Missouri. The Art is Ageless Exhibit is an extension of the Art is Ageless calendar contest, an annual tradition of Presbyterian Manors of Mid-America, the parent organization of Fulton Presbyterian Manor. A contest to select works for the calendar, which represents retirement communities throughout the Presbyterian Manor system, began in 1980 and has been held annually since. With the addition of the local exhibit for the preliminary judging, the purpose is to generate positive awareness that aging may include finding new talents as we find the time to pursue interests set aside during our working years.
