“Favorite works from past years have always been a popular topic of conversation for visitors to our exhibits,” says Sarah Wertheimer, associate executive director of Embracing Our Differences. “We’ve talked about adding a “Best of the Past” tri-pod to our exhibit for a long time and we’re very excited to be able to make it happen in 2016.” She adds that to prepare for this new initiative, Embracing Our Difference’s volunteers and supporters reviewed hundreds of artworks from the past 12 years.

“Six finalists have been selected, and now we want the public to help us choose the three winners,” says Wertheimer. “We invite everyone to vote between now and January 8. We can’t wait to see the results!”

The three “Best of the Past” artworks will be on display as part of the 2016 Embracing Our Differences exhibit, March 30-May 31, at Island Park in Sarasota.
