As this was the first ever art expo the nation had held, there was only a single category: Westarctica. Artists were encouraged to utilize any visual, non-written or performance art medium. They were only advised that their pieces would be judged based on how relevant they were to the subject of Westarctica, in general. | ||
As the event was an expo, and not an actual contest, there was no true judging or winners. However, it was decided that up to three pieces would be able to receive special recognition as "Selections." | As the event was an expo, and not an actual contest, there was no true judging or winners.
