It's a great achievement. They usually pick a juror of some national or international fame. No. 2, it's open to anyone who wants to submit work, not just artists from Monmouth County. So it's rich in its submissions. There (are) lots and lots of people with experience and skill who enter this show.

A very strong group. There wasn't a lot on the lower end. I rated them all pretty high. I guess it's characteristic of good teaching.
