Application Requirements

Jurying and Application Information

  • Send two to five digital images that clearly represent work to be sold at Summerfair.  The committee recommends that three of these show a small grouping (two to four items), in order to give the jurors a clear understanding of the variety and range of your work. One image must show your complete booth display. The committee reserves the right to refuse any artist the privilege of exhibiting work not previously approved by the jury.
  • If your application is accepted by the jury, your booth fee will be due by Friday, May 27.
  • All artists will receive notification of the jurying results electronically by Wednesday, 4/13.
  • No commercial or mass-produced products will be permitted, except reproductions of paintings or drawings, as long as the original art is also for sale in the artist's booth. Since images of work are the determining factor in acceptance, take pictures with care. Jury decisions are final. Past participation does not guarantee jury acceptance.
  • Jurying is done by a committee of community members. Jurors look for saleable, fine quality, creative, original work by the artist. The committee strives to balance media representation. Only work hand-crafted by the selling artist is acceptable.

Eligibility Criteria

No commercial or mass-produced products will be permitted, except reproductions of paintings or drawings, as long as the original art is also for sale in the artist's booth. Vendors are required to sell hand made goods. Since images of work are the determining factor in acceptance, take pictures with care. Jury decisions are final. Past participation does not guarantee jury acceptance.
