Art Association Urges Members To Reveal Their Talents
APA members and their spouses had an opportunity to unveil themselves during the 32nd APA Art Exhibit, held in conjunction with the 2001 annual meeting in New Orleans.
This year’s exhibit attracted entries of remarkable quality. Most visitors became impromptu art critics, casting ballots to determine the winners in each of 10 categories. Awards were presented to the winners at a ceremony on May 8 by incoming APA President Richard Harding, M.D.
The time has arrived for APA members and spouses to express themselves, to show the courage to unshroud their restless unconscious. It is essential to be neither timid nor alarmed (though some might be startled) when letting loose their latent artistic potential, which every one of us has. The APA Art Association’s door is open and ready to capture that potential.
Here are the 2001 award winners:
