It was The Pas’ turn to host the Manitoba Northern Juried Arts Show this year and artists from the north submitted their works to be evaluated in this year’s judging. The pandemic has slightly impacted the event, as it has been eight years, since The Pas hosted an in-person show for this event.
“Each year the Northern Juried Art Show is hosted by a different community,” said Manitoba Northern Juried Arts Show Volunteer Shauna Ponask. “The Pas last hosted an in-person show in 2016, where we had 220 entries. We hosted a virtual show in 2021, and had 110 entries. This year had 47 adults and 23 youth entered 145 pieces of art.”
