ABOUT THE MCBA PRIZE
Established in 2009, The MCBA Prize <https://mcbaprize.org/> is an international artist’s book award that honors excellence in new work from across the sweeping spectrum of book art. This year, we received 158 submissions from 18 countries, from Korea to Portugal.

HEAR FROM THE WINNER
After the big announcement, you’ll have a front-row seat for an artist conversation between Juror Betty Bright <https://mcbaprize.org/2020-mcba-prize-juror-betty-bright/> and the
newly-revealed winner. Take advantage of our live Q&A and ask the featured speakers a question.

GET TO KNOW THE FINALISTS
Among differences in intention, content, materials, and execution, Betty Bright writes, "A closer look at the five works provides perspective on who we are and where we are heading . . . What all of the works share is an authentic voice." Head to our official website, mcbaprize.org, to see images and video documentation!
