Vol. 21 Number 1 SPRING 2001 The Center forWestern Studies Newsletter In spite of a weekend of weather more fitting for polar bears than art shows, the 21st annual Artists of the Plains Art Show and Sale was a success. Our premier showing on Friday evening, February 23, had about half the number of people that usually attend. Our Saturday and Sunday crowds were comparable to other years. The Radisson Encore Hotel hosted the show and sale for the sixth year and again proved to be a great place to attract the public. We want to thank the Radisson for sponsoring our Premier showing Reception on Friday evening. Friday evening again provided the public with an opportunity to vote for their choice of “Best of Show” for a painting and a three-dimensional piece. The art com-mittee chair, Frank Gibbs, again emceed the short program. Augus-tana College President Bruce Halverson brought a welcome from the college and he and Roger C u r r i e r, General Manager of Results Radio, helped to make the award presentations. Our Best of Show ribbons and $50 cash prizes were awarded to woodcarver Arnold Bortnem, Sioux Falls, for his black walnut carving Spirit Queen Noor of Jordan to Visit on May 9th The Center for Western Studies is pleased to host Her Majesty, Queen Noor of Jordan, as the seventh speaker for the Boe Forum on Public Affairs.
