Calling Avenues Artists: Street Fair “Featured Artist” Statements Due April 2nd, 2023!
Each year, the Avenues Street Fair Committee announces that applications are open for the current year's Featured Artist Program. Local artists send in their statement of interest and examples of their work. The Avenues Street Fair committee reviews the applications and selects the artist. The artist then creates an original painting or digital work of art that represents the artist’s concept of what “the Avenues” means to them. Their creation becomes the official promotional art for that year's Fair, and is used on the the official event t-shirt, posters and other print ads, press releases, social media, the street fair web page, and all street fair promotional materials.
The artist agrees that the Street Fair committee may use the image for street fair promotional purposes, and in return the artist is given a complimentary booth at the Fair to display and sell all their artwork. The artist retains the ownership of their original piece of art and may sell it at the Fair. We ask that the artist have their original piece of art on display during the Fair.
It is time for artists to apply to be the Featured Artist of the 2023 Avenues Street Fair! Statements are due April 2nd. The Street Fair Committee will select the Featured Artist and notify all candidates by the end of April. The artwork is due to GACC by May 15th, 2023, and then is used in all Street Fair promotional items, with the original art remaining the property of the artist. To submit a Statement of Interest, please email .
At present we have received 2023 Featured Artist applications from Gunter Radinger, Carol Kamerath, Martial Benard, Annette Campbell and Aatmica Ojha. The committee will make their selection and announce the 2023 Featured Artist soon!
