There
will be two special art awards given. The Eddie Harriman Award is given
to the artwork that features the Maine Lobster Festival theme,
"Lobsters". This award was created in memory of the artist who for years
painted lobsters on windows in downtown Rockland to promote the
Festival. The Betty Kinney Award is given to a painting inspired by a
coastal scene. This award is given in memory of the woman who
established and directed the Maine Lobster Festival Art Show for 25
years.
