This year's show builds on its past success with:
- Greater variation in media and style
- ASK-provided MasterCard and VISA payment availability
- More musical venues and food availability for attendees
This is a juried show, so not just everyone will be accepted, but we'd love for you to apply. Submissions are evaluated on originality, quality of workmanship, design excellence and professional presentation.
There are (of course) criteria, they include:
- Open to all professional artists.
- Artistic disciplines include the following categories: Painting/Artwork, Mixed Media - 2D or 3D,
- Ceramics/Pottery, Metalwork, Glass, Leather, Jewellery, Photography, Sculpture, Textile/Fibre and Wood.
- Other categories are at the discretion of the Selection Committee.
- Artists are required to display a minimum of 50% original work. Quality reproductions are acceptable.
- Work that has been produced with commercial kits, molds, patterns, plans, prefabricated forms or other commercial methods is not permitted.
- Only work created by the artist accepted as an exhibitor may be displayed or offered for sale. This must be
- consistent with the images submitted by the artist and SVSG guidelines.
- Applications will be assessed based on the digital images submitted. The Selection Committee's decision is final.
A complete guidelines/criteria document is available. Please download and read it if you are interested, as the previous list is an extract from the complete document.
Expect a repeat and growing crowd! The event committee received detailed and positive feedback from attendees, artists and Main St. merchants alike. We expect we will reap the benefits of the high calibre show; attendees were pleased at the high quality of artwork and attractiveness of the open air venue.
The event fee is $150 for ASK members and $175 for new members (including ASK membership and its benefits for the remainder of 2011).
