CONGRATULATIONS TO THE VALLEY ORIGINALS
“Essence of the Valley” Call for Art Winners!
Earlier this season, MWV Vibe and the Valley Originals, a group of locally owned and operated
restaurants, joined together for the first Essence of the Valley, Call for Art competition!
The call went out to all local artists from the Mt. Washington
Valley area to enter art work that represents the Valley and all that
the Valley Originals does for our community at large (with thanks
to you, our guests, of course)! If you dine at a Valley Original, you
are automatically giving back to the MWV community. All VOs
donate over a combined $353,000.00 annually back to our valley.
We were thrilled with the responses, and the amazing talent we
FIRST-PLACE WINNER - Deidre Blair
have in our valley. The Valley Original board met to review all the
entries, and chose the top-three favorites. Winners received cash
prizes, while all entries were also given Valley Original gift certificates. Our first-place winner will also be featured on Vibe’s back
cover! Thank you to everyone who helped to make this art competition possible—and be on the lookout for another Essence of
the Valley, Call for Art early next year!
SECOND PLACE - Sarah Eastman
THIRD PLACE - Melanie Levitt
