Illustrators such as John Stadler and Chris Demarest (Eileen Christelow standing in for Gloria Kamen) became jurors in the annual Fine Line Between Art & Illustration show in 1998.

Book People visited the gallery too. Author Karen Hesse and Windham County Literacy Goddess Ruth Allard stand still for a photo.

Thought-provoking themes inspired brain-twisting visuals.
