Smith assessed, “This is some of the most dope work that I have seen entered. Work was outstanding, top to bottom. Right down to the finalist.”

Barbara Levy, president of LIA, stated, “The quality of the work was outstanding. While there was a lot of healthy discussion, the jury came easily to a consensus when it came to deciding the Grand LIA. That’s how you know a piece of work is really head and shoulders above the rest.”
