Colfax, WA Hangs It Up: Part 1

On March 6, 2008 the Colfax Arts Council 'Meet the Artist' event, at the Whitman County Library on Main Street, was a reception for the 10 banner artists whose work a distinguished jury selected to hang on the lamp posts of downtown Colfax. All banners were entered anonymously, to ensure fairness in jurying.

Please scroll down to see images of all 10 banners, the winners from the 2008 competition, with the artist's name above each.
