• • Awarded to a first-year student who has already developed a unique voice and technical proficiency.
  • Note from Gallery 78: “We were quite taken with every piece created by De-Anne, and we cannot wait to see what she creates next!”

Best Collection Award (cash prize): Ariel Dufour

• • • Awarded to an artist who created a line of work that not only carried a shared aesthetic with great technical proficiency, but manages to also make each piece unique.
    • Note from Galley 78: “Ariel created a beautiful line that is both seamlessly congruent while honouring individuality.”

David & Nancy Holt Memorial Award (cash prize): Min Peng

• • Awarded in the spirit of supporting artists’ ventures.
  • Note from Gallery 78: “Min Peng’s decoratively functional pieces of a cup, fork and spoon set, and tea strainer were considered the best in show.”
