Trevor Perry and Emilio Aramburu receiving their trophies at the VIPC-meeting on the 4th of december 2022. Congratulations!
The external judge for the exhibition, unfortunately, was unable to complete his review for personal reasons. Therefore, it was decided that the committee would have to complete the assessment. All the committee members viewed the exhibition in situ and a 3, 2, 1 points system was used to find the winners.
