Rickert-Ziebold finalists announced: "Twenty-one collegiate artists will vie for the $20,000 purse in the 2005 Rickert-Ziebold Trust Award competition, open only to selected seniors in the Southern Illinois University Carbondale School of Art and Design.
Perhaps the most profitable contest of its kind, its purse may go to a single winner or be split among several artists. Art school faculty annually select the winners, with the announcement set for 3:30 p.m. Monday, April 4, in the Surplus Gallery at the Glove Factory, a collection of studios and galleries kept by the University (408 S. Washington St.), at the corner of Washington and College streets.
The public may see the works at free open houses from 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday, April 3; 11 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Monday, April 4; 10 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 5; and 1-3 p.m. Wednesday, April 6."
