I just learned that local Twin Cities artist Ken Avidor won a 2009 Page One Award at the recent (May 14) ceremony. These awards recognize excellence in Minnesota journalism.

Ken and Steve Kaplan won first place in the Magazine—Story, Design and Photography: Best commissioned illustration—with less than 50k circulation category.

Congratulations!
