Alpine ArtAffair is looking for local artists

I received the following from the organizers of the ArtAffair - please be sure to email them if you're interested. It would be quite a cost savings and a lot less hassle setting up if a group of locals got to share one big tent.

The Winter Park Alpine ArtAffair is scheduled for July 25-26. The 36th annual event is a favorite summer activity of locals, second homeowners, and tourists. The juried art show also features local non-profit organizations and entertainment (and is organized/run entirely by volunteers). Proceeds from the 2-day event benefit local art/music/theater students, schools, and arts organizations.

The Alpine ArtAffair would like to encourage more local artist involvement and is considering this year having a special "locals" area that would feature local artists/interests. This area could feature artists sharing booths, possibly a "large" tent area with multiple artists, and single booths--perhaps all at reduced fees. If there is interest shown by local artists, the Alpine ArtAffair committee will pursue this avenue further. Please visit the Alpine ArtAffair website at www.alpineartaffair.com or email alpineartaffair@yahoo.com. Applications may be downloaded from the website and are due April 30.
