Emerging Artists Info
Purpose of the Emerging Artist Program: To foster and highlight the next generation of exhibiting artists by creating an opportunity for NEW artists to participate in a fine art show. New Artists are anyone who has not exhibited at a fine art festival or had a solo gallery show, including those artists with and without formal training. The timeline for application is the same as the artist applications for the regular show.
