The catered dinner is hosted by Ken and Theresa Harris in their home in Middlebury. You do not need to be present at A Toast to the Arts to win.

Kolb has appeared in numerous publications including Art New England and American Artist. Her work has been exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions including The Shelburne Museum, The Fleming Museum of Art, and The New Britain Museum of American Art.
