Capturing Juniata at Lily Manor

We had prefect weather for the last 2012 Capturing Juniata Event

on September 16 held at Lily Manor, Mifflin.



The quiet peaceful gardens provided an ideal location
for artists to create works of art.



The owner of Lily Manor picked handfuls of
sunflowers for the ladies! Thanks Joe!



An artist spotlight around every corner.

Excellent Fair Art Show

The Fair's Art Show continues to bring in large crowds of people. Thanks again to everyone that entered.

People's Choice Winner

Congratulations Ann Kroh, Newbloomfield for your PEOPLE'S CHOICE award!! Her acrylic painting titled "Royal Ann" received the most votes even "before my family could come and vote" she said. Ann also added that this cupboard is in her house and she enjoys canning. However, some of the items she wanted to paint she did not have. So, she went to the store, bought what she wanted, dumped them in her jars, and added them to her canning shelf.

People's Choice Winner Ann Kroh
