Nancy Bjerken at the Winter Park Resort is still looking for artists for the 1st annual Grand Arts Festival. She's trying to organize a festival and tribute to the local Grand County artists. It would be for all Grand County artists to show and sell their art, and hopefully teach a little bit about their art to the public. If you're interested, you need to let her know soon! She's very excited about this, but right now she doesn't have enough artists to pull it off.
She's decided to have it as a one day event this year on July 11th. This is a free event for the local artists with no booth fee. However, there would be a schedule of free demonstrations or (very) low-cost classes running throughout the weekend with a specific tent/area for this. She especially wants to get the kids hands-on and involved with activities so there would also be a tent designated for kids’ art and maybe rotating artists through there. They could subsidize a certain amount of money per artist for supplies.
This would be a great way to get exposure and sales for Grand County artists. If you're interested, please call Nancy at 726-6563 or email her at NBjerken@zmlwp.com.
