This year’s in-person Diorama Contest, Driving The World Forward, asked entrants to showcase an invention or innovation that they believe drove the world forward! Entrants submitted photos of the finished product ahead of time, and then brought their works of art to Kentucky for judging. The hands-on hobby tent housed the dioramas all weekend long, but if you didn’t get a chance to see the winning entries in person, take a look below! Each of our In-Person Diorama Contest winners took home a beautiful glossy version of this year's Celebration Horse, Bravour 54.
