2009 Art Contest Winners Announced

One of the anticipated events each year at the Annual Meeting is the Art Contest/Art Show. Artful attorneys are encouraged to submit recent works (within the past five years) in any of the 10 categories.

After judging, the pieces are put on display at the convention. The overall winning entry earns the right to be displayed prominently at the Oklahoma Bar Center in Oklahoma City. That honor this year went to Edmond attorney Cam Cherry for his 3-dimensional work Hope, a carved bowl made from reclaimed wood with embedded turquoise.
