State showcase 4-H judging results can be found on the 4-H at the Minnesota State Fair results, news releases and photos page.
Search options include exhibitor name, county or the division that they entered into.
4-H State Fair photos are located on the 4-H SmugMug site, allowing you to locate photos in these ways:
- Use one of the "photo" links on the 4-H fair results web page
- Navigate/search the 2023 state fair purple ribbon SmugMug gallery. Search terms can include a 4-H member's name, county and/or a specific project or activity area.
The 4-H SmugMug site provides you the option of ordering professionally prints of any photo. Simply click on the "Buy" or "Buy Photos" button.
Note that the prices you will pay will cover the cost for SmugMug to print the photo, plus an additional amount that helps to fund the other expenses of providing these photos (staff time, equipment, etc.)
Also note that you have the option to download the original quality file and print it yourself or at a local store/photo printing service.
Full resolution (original size) image files are available for download. When viewing a photo, look for the "download" icon to click on and download the photo. At times you will have to hover and slightly move your mouse so that the toolbar, which includes the download icon, will appear.
While any download should get you the full sized image file, you may also find it helpful to access the "Original" sized image by clicking on the "Sizes" icon.

The most likely reason for this is that either the judging for that activity has not happened yet, or the results are still being processed for posting. Please check back later. Our goal is to get results posted within 1-2 days of the completion of judging.
It will take 24 hours (or possibly longer) to get photos posted, following the completion of each judging session. Please check back later to see if the photo is posted then.
It is also possible, due to the participant's availability for photos, that some purple ribbon winners did not get their photos taken. In other words, it is often up to the participant to be a particular place at a particular time to have their photo taken, and not all participants are able to make that happen.
