Determination of Winners

A panel of Laurels has volunteered to blind

jury the submitted pieces. An online gallery will be created of all pages

submitted and each judge will select their favorite 5 entries. Judges will not

have access to the name of the scribe submitting the work and will only see

the front of the illumination. Each illumination will be entitled as "Inspired

by (medieval work, folio number)". Once voting has concluded winners will

be announced on the College of Scribes email group, Trimaris Arts and

Sciences network and Trimaris Scribes networks. Prizes will be distributed

at an event after the winners have been determined.

Prizes?:

Of course... there are always prizes.

A prize will be awarded to

the top 10 chosen works.
