Our 12th Annual Fall Fest would not have been complete without the Art + Design Competition, in which artists and designers compete to incorporate a common material (this year, it was Foundry Patterns from the Acrowood Foundry in Everett, WA) into a completely new piece. The competition was judged by the public and 8 prizes were awarded for pieces that ranged from highly functional to purely aesthetic. Congratulations to this year’s winners!
