Calling all artists!
We are currently seeking artists to participate in a two day art festival and exhibition in scenic Minnekhada Regional Park in Coquitlam, British Columbia. This event will offer live music, roving performers, an outdoor café, workshops, a children’s area, and, of course, the artwork of many talented BC artists. This festival will provide a high quality event for artists to network with the public and their colleagues, and to promote their studio practice. Art sales are a welcome by-product of this exhibition, but not the sole purpose. There will be space for artists both inside the historic Minnekhada lodge, and as well as outside in the circular driveway by the fountain. There is an exhibitor fee; however, no percentage of the artists’ sales is retained by the organizers.
Participation Requirements
Entry fees and two to three photos of your art work are required with your application. Vendor selection is made by a jury to ensure variety and quality of entries. Applications are due July 1st. Each entry will be reviewed and notification letters will be sent out around mid-July. Late applicants will also be juried and may be placed on a waiting list. Entry fee cheques will be held until after jurying. If your application is not accepted, your cheque will be returned at that time.
 
Criteria for acceptance into The Art in the Park Festival 2010
For sculpture, drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, installation and craft in all media:

  • Applicants will be juried relative to the integrity, originality, level of craftsmanship and artistic merit of their art work. All jury decisions are final.
  • Mass-produced goods of any kind will not be accepted (this includes cards, imported bags, clothing, soap & bath products and jewellery).
  • All artwork must be created by the accepted applicant.
  • Applicants will also be judged relative to the diversity of the artwork of the other participants.
