Masquerade

Norwescon 35′s Masquerade had many amazing entries. Kudos go out to everyone who participated–we look forward to seeing your work in the future. Many thanks also to the staff and volunteers behind the scenes who worked hard to put on a great show. Thanks!

Art Show

Norwescon’s Art Show was a hotbed of activity with a small bidding war happening right before close. The sold stamps almost dried out. Our Judges worked hard to decide who should be honored this year. The art quality was some of the best that we have had. But, after much hair pulling, wrestling in the aisles and clipboard swings the honorees are:

Judges Choice:

People’s Choice Awards

Many thanks to Norwescon’s Art Show members who voted for their favorite artists in many different categories. The judges were forced to make tie breaking decisions in two categories, Fantasy and Horror.

We would also like to congratulate Leanne Dunn for receiving this year’s NWC Raising Artist Scholarship for “Vulture Girl”. The scholarship will be applied to her education at the Northwest College of Art.

A big thanks to our judges Don Lackey, Caroline Westra, and Mac Oros for their hard work and interesting wrestling moves.

Single Pattern Contest

This year’s Single Pattern Contest used the Butterick B5646 pattern.

Volunteers

Finally, four volunteers (one per day, plus a fourth for overall productivity and great attitude) won memberships to Norwescon 36. Congratulations to Michael McSweeney, Ray Seredin, Shaylee Bell, and Conde Holt!
