The Cypress Art League has just concluded “a very successful” spring art show, according to its President Pat Edep. The event was held last Sunday at the Cypress Community Center.“We had a very successful submission of multimedia artwork last weekend,” she said.

“All were winners in our book,” she said, “and those who were given awards were presented with ribbons and placed in the CAL Gallery until approximately May 17th,” said Edep. Mayor Anne Hertz-Mallari presented the awards and thanked Cypress Art League for visual creativity to the community, said Edep.

“This was our 47th Spring Show and there is an Autumn Show in September,” she added.“The Best of Show ‘City of Cypress’ Award was given to Robert Rosenfield who created his 3-dimensional piece from the root of a Cypress tree,” she said.

“It was carved honed and polished in a most beautiful manner.”The ‘Mayor’s’ Award was given to Bienvenido Sibug. He works in many media and does not lose the quality of his work from one change to another. His “Chinatown” seems to glow as you stare deeper into its streets.
