Artist information<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Artists are not required to pay a sales commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artists are asked to provide their own tents. White, professional display tents are required, and artists must weight the four corners of the tent. Additionally, your white weighted tent must have an official flame retardant stamp per fire regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you would like to rent a tent, the cost is $300 for a 10′ x 10′ festival style canopy. This price reflects various cost increases including tenting, labor, and trucking. Each tent will come with three walls unless otherwise requested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artists may install on Friday night prior to the festival or on Saturday morning before the show opens at 11AM. You’re able to pull your car right up to your tent to load and strike. Abundant free parking is available adjacent to the venue, and we provide handcarts and volunteers to assist artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Booth sitters and helpful volunteers are available.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Display Options<\/h6>\n\n\n\n

Artists must display with their own tent and supply all their hanging and display materials. Rental tents are available for purchase through Zapp. Artists use a variety of materials to hang their artwork from the poles in their tents; zip ties, ropes, thin chains, wires, s-hooks, bungee cords and more. The rental tent poles are 2\u2033 in diameter, and can withstand approximately 75 pounds of weight hanging from them. The rental tents are 10\u2032 above the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artists can also hang their artwork on fabric covered panels (using velcro or thin hooks), pegboard, wire shelving, grid racks, lattice, easels, painted fencing, professional display racks, etc. They attach their artwork with hooks, clips and velcro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We recommend Pro Panels which provide the easiest possible installation and in our opinion, the most professional look for your display. Flourish Panels and grid-walls are also popular professional display options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no lighting or electricity in the tents as the festival takes place in the bright, long days of April.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Artist Testimonials<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n

\u201cThank you and your team for a fantastic ArtWalk. All was great from the entertainment, ads, security, volunteers, fellow artists, food, and my location. I can only imagine how much work it was to pull it off. Great job!\u201d<\/p>\nDan Crotta<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI was also thrilled with the amount of body traffic that went by my booth and the number of people who stopped to look and buy my art. It was fantastic! You have a returning artist for next year, and I\u2019m really looking forward to it!\u201d<\/p>\nDebby Fleming<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI just wanted to drop you a line to say thanks for a great event last weekend!! I think this was my 4th ArtWalk and it was the best one yet in both sales and fun. I offered to continue my \u201cArtWalk special pricing\u201d for a limited time following the event and am still getting custom orders from folks who signed up on my email list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I really appreciate all of the effort that goes in to making this a good experience for artists & attendees alike. The detailed advance communications from Sean, the professionalism of the marketing team promoting the lead up to the event and the assistance from staff & volunteers on site were all awesome.\u201d<\/p>\nKaty Helen Stockinger<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI just wanted you to know how much I loved the ArtWalk experience and found it to be beautifully orchestrated and organized.  The volunteers and everyone were just incredible and thoughtful. The Art Walk was a success for me and I sold 6 paintings and 6 or 7 prints. Talked to hundreds of people and passed out a crazy amount of business cards. So, who knows what else may come from it. Crazy, fun, educational and exhausting weekend and well worth it.\u201d<\/p>\nBruce Swart<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWell, you did it again \u2014 a fabulous show helped along by the incredible work you, the staff and the volunteers did putting this shin-dig together. I have to thank you for the great, and I mean great, booth location. I will go online and get my application in for next year in hopes of saving that same spot. Thanking you all so very much for including me in the show. Did I mention how great the booth location was?!\u201d<\/p>\nCindy Teyro<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
