mediums including painting, drawing, ceramic, sculpture,

jurors have selected the individual works to be included in
the show and will also select the cash prize winners.
Artist reception

■ By Jehovah’s
Witnesses
For well over a decade, the summers in Portland have
featured Jehovah’s Witnesses streaming into the city and
filling hotels and restaurants as they held their conven-
tions, most recently at the Portland Expo Center. In 2020,
the pandemic unexpectedly interrupted that tradition,
moving the international religious organization to cancel
in person conventions throughout the world and launch a
global virtual event.
“Powerful by Faith!” is the theme of the 2021 global
event, which will be delivered in more than 500 languages
to households throughout the globe over six weekends
during July and August.
This year, for the second time, the event will be held
online. Six installments corresponding to morning and
afternoon sessions.
All are invited to attend the event by going to www.
jw.org on the web or JW Broadcasting on the free JW
Library app available for iOS or Android, or streaming
platforms. The program is free and accessible to all.
For more information, contact Jehovah’s Witnesses
United States at 718-560-5600 or pid@jw.org.
