The Artists Association of Nantucket (AAN) is pleased to announce the winning artists for the People’s Choice exhibition, a two week exhibition that was held in the Cecelia Joyce & Seward Johnson Gallery, 19 Washington Street
Throughout the first week of the exhibition visitors toured the two-story gallery and voted for their favorite works. “The exhibition featured over one-hundred works of art, and we had two-hundred ninety-two votes cast, with fifty one pieces receiving votes,” said AAN gallery manager Peter J. Greenhalgh. “We were delighted with the selections, which included work from a mix of long-time established artist members and newer members, with a nice array of mediums. It was a strong collection,” added Greenhalgh.
