Local Artist Wins Best in Show

Local Artist Wins Best in Show

Staff Writer

Cedar Key Artist Pat Goodrich brought home the Best in Show ribbon from the Arts and Crafts Festival for District 5 Greater Florida Woman`s Club, held in Gainesville February 5th. The annual show features work by Woman`s Clubs from Trenton thro` Gainesville to Ocala to Crystal River to Cedar Key.


Well-known for her talent in Cedar Key, Goodrich`s water color painting entitled "My Pond" not only placed first in category, but was also the judges` choice for Best in Show among 46 other Arts entries.


The Cedar Key Woman`s Club had 16 of the total 200 entries for the Show, and brought home 10 ribbons, a tribute to the talent of our Island`s women. Sue Casey achieved three of these ribbons for her entries in jewelry, photography, and a lovely angel- fashioned from an old hymnary! Ribbons also returned to Cedar Key for Millie Bayha`s holiday light, Mary Coleman`s basket and quilt, Mary Lou Ledoux` embroidery, Eileen Senecal`s wall-hanging, and Ingeborg Worth`s ceramic Magnolia.


All Festival entries must be from the past year`s work, and the unusual number of quilts and crochet work might be a comment on our recent weather! Pat Baldwin, Mary Coleman, and Eileen Senecal all entered beautiful hand-pieced quilts, and Marianna Siegfried a cozy hand-crocheted afghan.


The Cedar Key Woman`s Club was founded in 1960 and has been involved in many local projects, as well as being affiliated with the Florida Woman`s Club Federation. CKWC President Jerry Walling reports that blue ribbon winners from this Festival go on to the State level later in the spring.
