Margaret was awarded by Judge Glenda Cornell the Acquisition Prize provided by the Deniliquin Council carrying prize money of $2,000 for her oil painting "Hereford Lineup" at this years' Deniliquin Rotary Art Show held in the Multi-Arts Centre in the main street of Deniliquin.
At the end of the Show, Margaret also received the People's Choice Award with $150 for her same painting "Hereford Lineup". As she and her family had previously lived in Deniliquin for 10 years, she was delighted to have her painting of 4 Herefords remain in the town to be displayed in Council premises.
