“Art Hanging on Grand” Public Art Show at the 5th Annual Grand Avenue Festival
Artlink and Oasis on Grand are proud to present its first “Art Hanging on Grand” Public Art Show during this year’s Grand Avenue Festival at Oasis on Grand on Saturday, October 19, 2013.
Artists of all skill levels and ages are encouraged to submit hangable works of art for public display and sale during this annual event expected to draw thousands. The “Art Hanging on Grand” affords participants who are currently showing somewhere else, not presently showing or who have never displayed their art publicly, an opportunity to share it.
Art works must be hangable, self-contained, 25lb. max, no size maximum, and will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. Hanging mobiles and sculptures are also accepted. 100% of all art sales proceeds (less PayPal service fees) will go directly to the artist.
The fee to participate is $25 and will support “Art Hanging on Grand” and other Artlink projects.
The NEW deadline for sign-ups is Wednesday, October 16, and artwork is to be dropped off by 6 p.m. that same day (drop-off details below).
The “Art Hanging on Grand” is a new program of the annual Grand Avenue Festival, a free celebration of the vibrant culture, art, history and adaptive re-use of the Lower Grand Avenue Arts and Small Business District. Small businesses and art spaces along this unique and historic travel corridor will host tours of vintage commercial buildings and interesting adaptive re-use projects; create art exhibits; sponsor performances and music; and provide other special activities that highlight the history of this distinctive area of downtown.
The Grand Avenue Festival takes place on Saturday, October 19, from 10:00am – 8:00pm with After Hours from 8:00pm – 10:00pm. On Third Friday, October 18, there will be a “Art Hanging on Grand” artist’s reception from 6pm-9pm. Artists are encouraged to invite family, friends and collectors to the opening and throughout the Grand Avenue Festival event. Free Grand Avenue Festival Pedi-cabs will also stop at the Oasis on Grand, in front of “Art Hanging on Grand” making this a prime location for the event.
