Semi-finalists for the $25,000 Sondheim Prize are finishing up their applications to become finalists. If they are successful they'll be in an exhibit at the BMA and have a shot at the $25,000 prize. Last year's winner Tony Shore got a great deal of mileage off the prize. I see his name everywhere now. This year's crop of semi-finalists are much more Baltimore based. Kriston Capps noted on his blog that Molly Springfield, Chris Saar and Bridget Sue Lambert are the only DC artists nominated. Last year 14 of the semi-finalists were DC based.
I have provided links to each artist's website (or closest thing to it). In compiling these links I previewed all their work and I am very excited for the exhibits that will grow from this contest.
