Portland Open Studios - Call to Artists
Date Posted: February 18, 2008 Posted By: ArtPDX
Portland Open Studios is seeking metro area artists in all media to open their studios to the public. This is a unique opportunity for you to sell your artwork, build an audience and communicate with the public. Artists are selected for the event by a jury of three art professionals.
- Build your audience and communicate with the public
- Participate in and grow the local arts community
- Include your artwork in the published Tour Guide and on the website
The Tour Guide is a valuable reference book with your artwork and contact information — used by the media, curators, and art buyers all year long. Artists may get invited to exhibitions, get written about, teach classes and sell their work because of Portland Open Studios.
Also, for young artists:
Kimberly Gales Emerging Artists Scholarship to Portland Open Studios. Artists between 20 and 30 years old are encouraged to apply for the scholarship which includes a waiver of all fees and a $100 stipend. Ben Heiken and Jennifer Mercede, were our 2007 recipients
Studios West of the Willamette River are open October 11, 12 and on the Eastside on October 18,19. ( this year artists can additionally choose to be open both weekends!)
