You are invited to apply for acceptance to the 10th Annual Silverton Fine Arts Festival, to be held August 21 and 22, 2010, in Silverton, Oregon. Our goal for this festival is to celebrate the virtuoso talents of our finest local and regional artists, as well as to provide the public and our selected exhibitors with a show of the highest quality. The site, historic Coolidge–McClaine Park in the heart of Silverton, on the banks of Silver Creek, is a beautiful area surrounded by towering oak and Douglas-fir trees. It is a popular summer gathering place and a wonderful setting for the festival.
Silverton area artists, art patrons and community leaders involved in event planning are committed to providing pre-event and on-site service for all selected participants. We are further committed to quality marketing focused on art communities and major populations within a 50-mile radius (including Portland, Salem, and Vancouver, WA).
The Silverton Fine Arts Festival is within easy (and scenic) driving distance of Oregon's metropolitan areas, and is adjacent to the Oregon Garden and Silver Falls State Park. Now in its tenth year, this show has established an excellent reputation for both quality of art and entertainment and for good organization. It features entertainment and hands-on activities for both children and adults, and encourages an atmosphere of conviviality between festival attendees and participating artists.
The festival is open to all artists and craftspeople producing original work. A jury of individuals with experience as working artists, gallery owners, and festival directors, will select artists to participate based on images submitted. Application deadline is March 31.
