You’re invited to vote for your favorite entries. Winners of the Community Choice Awards will be announced in December.

This year’s artists include Bob Dawson, Jeanne Houle Peters, Barbara Summersett, Madhura Mehendale, Cynthia Cote, Phyllis Fredendall, Clyde Mikkola, Charles Eshbach, Diana Lyon, Duane Lyon, Tony Hatala, Christa Walck, Tammy Toj Gajewski, Kristine Danielson, Fredi Taddeucci, and Pamela Hecht.
