What a wonderful opening night!  The weather couldn't have been more perfect, the band was excellent, the food was melt in your mouth good, and the company, of course, was the best part.  There is nothing more rewarding than talking with others that are as passionate about the art of scrimshaw as you are. 

Congratulations to all of our  winners,  Linda Karst Stone-Winner Colored Wildlife, David Smith-Winner B/W Wildlife and Open, Gerry Dupont-Winner B/W Nautical and last but not least, Sandra Brady-Best of Show and Winner Color Nautical.  The show will remain up until Sept. 30.  Please come and vote for the People's Choice Award during that time. As per federal law, we cannot ship whales teeth.
