The 40th Annual Pastel Society of America Exhibition ended its run with a gala awards dinner at the National Arts Club in Gramercy Park. This New York City annual is always a major draw and Salmagundi was very well represented on the walls, at the tables and accepting a generous share of prizes and accolades from the podium.

Congrats to everyone, it was fun evening, and wonderful tribute to Flora B. Giffumi’s vision for pastels in the 21st Century
Such a wonderful evening and a beautiful show! Congratulations to all the artists represented and to the award winners.
thank you for the photos and sending the link to them. Very much appreciated.
What a wonderful celebration of Pastel! After working in pastel for over 55 yrs. Pastel has truly reached a Rennaissance of popularity and appreciation. I appreciate the honor of receiving an award with the name of Flora Giffuni on it as well as having it for the work I did honoring my mentor Daniel Greene. Great job to all who worked so hard on such a great event. Thank you all, Claudia Post
What a beautiful show, and so great to meet so many nice people! Thanks for posting the photos.
