Each conference gives awards to outstanding entries in the fashion show, juried show, open exhibits, and guild booth displays. Many of these awards are made possible by donations from ANWG member guilds. Some guilds sponsor awards given in the name of a member they wish to recognize or memorialize, while other guilds make a cash donation to be used for a more general award. Some people may elect to individually sponsor a specific award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
