PNCA Faculty Member Ellen Lesperance was recently named the winner of the 32nd Annual Betty Bowen Award presented by the Seattle Art Museum. Three hundred and fifty artists from Washington, Oregon and Idaho applied this year for the award, held in honor of the late arts supporter Betty Bowen, who died in 1977. In addition to a cash prize, her work will be displayed at the museum and she will give a talk on October 21.
