We were delighted that so many of you joined us on January 21st for the opening of our juried exhibition, ‘Eye of the Needle.’  We, at HVMOCA, are very excited about the way the show came together and the high quality of the applicants works.

Which has put us in a bit of a quandary

There are three awards being offered to recognize outstanding quality. We are in the enviable position of having to choose from many high-quality applications- a difficult decision, and one that we now look to our audience to help.

Let us know your top 3 choices.

  • The only requirement is that you have seen the exhibition in person

  • You may use online images to refresh your memory (

  • E-mail your three choices, in order of preference: 1st, 2nd or 3rd place, to info@hudsonvalleymoca.org Thank you in advance for your participation
