The St. Bernard Art Guild has chosen Janice Hilborn as the artist of

the season for Summer of 2012. Janice started taking photos as a child

with a Kodak Brownie camera. After she met her husband Paul, the two

would go “Plantation Hopping” when he bought her first 35mm camera. In

the mid 80′s Janice joined the St. Bernard Photographic Society where

she served as secretary, vice president, and president. A long-time

member of the St. Bernard Art Guild, Janice has won numerous awards

with her photography skills.

The St. Bernard Art Guild meets the first Thursday of every month at

6:30 p.m. in the council chambers at the St. Bernard Parish Government

Complex, 8201 W. Judge Perez Drive in Chalmette.

Membership in the guild is open to veteran artists, as well as

beginners (18 years of age and older). For more information about the
