2011 Gourd Art Competition

The Michigan Festival of Gourds is again hosting a competition for gourd artisans and those who grow gourds. Last year's first ever Michigan competition was a learning experience and with the helping hand of other A.G.S judges, the Michigourders did a great job. Now having learned so much from the first competition, they have jumped feet first into this year's event. There will be 4 levels of competition instead of the usual 3 and one just for youth. The categories have been tightened up and the rules spelled out clearly. Even if you are new to competing, please enter your artwork and we will help you through the process.

We here at the Michigan Festival of Gourds want to say "a big thank you" to the Michigourder gourd guild and visiting judges. They have generously volunteered their time and talents towards our cause!
