Submitting Your Work
General Description — A four member jury panel comprised of artists and art professionals will select exhibitors based on the artistic quality of the work submitted. All media and artforms are accepted except work considered crafts or artisinal for possessing a strongly functional dimension.

A number of local business-sponsored Artist Patron Awards are available to provide some reduced tent fees. Awardees will be notified when provided date assignments.
