The Artists Gallery: Ralph Hodgdon

The Artists Gallery

Sandy threw many people off with the wig! She created a clever paper doll set 

that featured the outfits she wore at the convention. 

Sylvia Kleindinst showcased her original art

Anita Korsonsky, attending her first convention, displayed a paper castle from her collection.

Karen Hunter's amazing artwork -- she captures the stars from some of our favorite TV shows. 

That's Hugh Bonneville (Lord Grantham from Downton Abbey) top left, and 

 Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York from Bewitched.

Karen also collects Betsy McCall paper dolls and figurines that she shared in Special Exhibits.

Hippie Night

Lynne Hills and Sharry O'Hare in hippie finery. 

Many people were inspired to dress up -- perhaps made easier 

by personal memories of the era and memorable costumes once owned.

Denise Bond

Julie Cruz-Jones and daughter Gina Lannen. 

It was their first convention and they jumped right into the fun!

Convention Snapshots

David Wolfe took us back to the 60s in style!

The first of two Ralph Hodgdon workshops

Jane Borg and her sister Jeanette Craker

Ron Fong and Linda Hoerner. 

Linda designed our logo, centerpieces and name tags -- and came up with the idea of a name-tag decorating station so attendees could color and embellish their own name tags.
