Carol Kaenel won the People’s Choice Award at this year’s 50+ Shades of Grey exhibit at the Wood County Senior Center in downtown Bowling Green.
Kaenel’s winning art was a drawing of Jacqueline Kennedy. The competition for the prize, the only one given at the show, was tight, said Jacqui Nathan, of the Bowling Green Arts Council. The award was determined by ballots cast by those attending the opening reception on Friday (Feb. 22).
The show features 54 paintings, drawings, fabric work, ceramics, and photographs by 23 senior artists from Northwest Ohio.
The exhibit will be on view through March 28.
Kaenel received a $50 gift certificate from The Art Supply Depo.
The exhibit is a collaborative effort of the Bowling Green Arts Council and the Wood County Committee on Aging.
