Discover the Arts!
In St. Mary’s County
Congratulations Bernard Matus, First Place Winner of the Wine Label Contest!
We would like to thank the many artists who submitted a design and the 800 people who voted! The St. Mary’s County Arts Council partnered with the Port of Leonardtown Winery to host the first of an annual label design contest.
The winery is set to celebrate the 15th anniversary of their tasting room and this competition not only creates a unique art label, but it also supports the SMCAC and its programming.
