We are pleased to announce the winners of the Nevada Public Radio 25th Anniversary Art Competition. This competition and the tour have been sponsored by Sonja and Michael Saltman of The Vista Group, co-founders of the Saltman Center for Conflict Resolution at the UNLV Boyd School of Law.
Judges' Statement: The first place winner was selected because it represented the theme. It was exciting, colorful and easy to read and technically well done. We believe that it will also make a wonderful poster commemorating the 25th on-air anniversary of Nevada Public Radio. Congratulation to all of the winners and thank you to all of the 76 artists who entered this competition.
