Call for Entries:
The 2009 Visual Artist Online Application is now open, with a
Art - General
The thirteen media categories that are juried for the Arts Festival are: ceramics, digital art, drawing, fiber, glass, graphics and printmaking, jewelry, metalworks, mixed media, painting, photography, sculpture and wood. A panel of qualified jurors will meet to review the total body of submitted work in January. Digital images are reviewed by the panel in a blind jury process: the identities of the artists are not disclosed to the jury. The jury has a single standard when selecting exhibitors, the art is judged to be of the highest artistic excellence.
Emerging Artist Program
Designed specifically for artists who have no experience exhibiting and
selling their artwork at all venues, or extremely minimal experience if
any. The application procedure and fee is the same as the regular show,
however, upon acceptance emerging artists will pay a lower booth fee,
have a tent provided and receive mentoring through the Arts Festival.
Artists may only apply to the Emerging Artist Program or for the
general show, but they may not apply to both. Artists who are just
beginning their careers in the artworld are encouraged to apply. The
Arts Festival reserves the right to pre-screen and research emerging
artists to make sure they are a fit for this category and that they do
not have extensive experience exhibiting and selling their work.
Emerging Artist Applicants will proceed in the same manner as
professional artists and submit their artwork through Zapplication.org.
Emerging Artists are asked to apply with a 5th image of their work
instead of an image of their booth.When uploading your images, you will
upload the 5th image of your work by selecting 'YES' this is your booth
shot, even though it is not.
