Saturday, May 31, 2025. The Prince William Art Society (PWAS) Member Art Exhibit came down today at the ARTfactory. This member only show was at the gallery in Manassas from May 15 until today. Our next show, the Best of the Region Fine Art Show and Sale is about to begin on June 3 and will run until June 15. We counted the People's Choice votes too.

People's Choice Awards

People's Choice awards are a fun way to see what strikes the gallery visitor's fancy and allows them time to really consider the artwork on display. Especially when there are so many wonderful artworks, in so many styles and subjects and mediums. We had a LOT of votes (that's GREAT!). Sheri Herrick and Evelyn Chatters did the honors of counting out the choices, so let's have a look at what the ARTfactory visitors loved the most - although most all of the artwork did receive some votes.

Third Place People's Choice

Mandy Powell's "Gratitude" 30x24x1.5 Mixed Media - Alcohol Ink, mixed media paper, oils

Second Place People's Choice - a Tie

Betty Sperty's "Beedazzeled" 16x20 which Bettie describes the media as Acrylic and Bling. The photo just doesn't do this artwork justice as it doesn't show the wonderful glimmer and shimmer work that went into it! This was a definite one to see in person.

Donna Liguria's "Spring at Merrimac Farm" (the Bluebells) 20x16x105 Acrylic (Painting SOLD!)

First Place People's Choice

"Stormy Seas" by Donna Liguria 40x16x1.5 in Acrylic

Best of the Region Fine Art Show and Sale

A People's Choice Award will also be given at the Best of the Region Show at the ARTfactory June 3- 15, so be sure to get to the ARTfactory and vote your favorite there too! The Art Reception is Saturday, June 7 from 6-8pm. Awards for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and some Honorable Mentions will also be awarded at the Art Reception.
