Senior Kathryn Komerska’s “Pleasant Afternoon” wins Grand Prize in 7th Annual Art Contest

Congratulations to PCA Senior Kathryn Komerska, the grand prize winner of PCA’s 7th Annual Auction Art Contest! Her piece “Pleasant Afternoon” is a whimsical depiction, in warm and acrylic tones, of a summer BBQ, portraying the generosity, love, and enjoyment of a family feast.

An Artists’ Reception will be held on March 15, 2019 at 3:30pm in the PCA gym lobby, to honor all of the winners of the juried art contest associated with PCA’s 24th Annual Auction. With 85 submissions, the Art Contest is a significant component of PCA’s 24th Annual Auction. The theme of this year’s Auction – The Bountiful Table: Sowing, Harvesting, Feasting – represents a literal celebration of farm to table as well as the abundance of spirit within the PCA community. Through the artwork and pottery in our gallery, we symbolically feast upon the goodness of the harvest and the fruit of the Earth.
