Due to a family illness, I currently am taking a leave of absence from the DHM Digital Gallery and plans for the 2011 Art of Applied Design competition have been temporarily suspended. Many thanks to those of you have supported and participated in DHM Digital Gallery activities in the past, and apologies to those who were looking forward to once again exhibiting their work on our website. We hope to resume our competition schedule in the not too distant future. You can watch this website for more information as it becomes available. We also will send electronic messages to all those in our e-mail directory, when new opportunities are opened.
