We are also planning short workshops for those who might like to try some new skills, mainly free - just the cost of materials . Stay tuned.

Entries are $25 for each entry. 

$20 for Youth per each entry. 

As for last year you will  need to find  your  own model If you enter more than one item you must have a separate model for each item (unless it is a headdress entry and a costume entry, which could be worn by the one model but judged separately for both items).
