In Tampa, Florida, the Gasparilla Festival runs one month and the festival of the Arts is a three-day component towards the end of this celebration. Susanne Nielsen was chosen to participate among the 300 artists in the Curtis Hixon Park along the Hillsborough River. She won an award of merit making her eligible to show her work in three consecutive years following this first event and award. She showed much larger sculptures (see above) than in her first year showing at this exhibition.
