Mechanics Hall is known for its great acoustics, which means there’s never a bad seat, even if you’re in the balcony like these five winners. Pictured, from left to right, are: Kristina Vickstrom, founder, Kristina R. Vickstrom, Attorney at Law; Sara Kelleher Sears, vice president, Coldwell Banker; John W.S. Creedon Jr., associate, Fletcher, Tilton & Whipple; Nichole Glinski Curtin, associate vice president, marketing and communications, Workers’ Credit Union; Dennis Braun, director of graduate and continuing education, Anna Maria College.
