was awarded to Steve Quevado of Arlington for his acrylic artwork “The Melancholy Astronaut”- at the Reception & Awards Ceremony for the 31st Texas & Neighbors Regional Art Exhibition presented by Irving Arts Center and the Irving Art Association earlier this month. Overall, it was quite a showing for Arlington artists with three awards claimed by artists from the city.
