Richfield Art Fair <artfairrhs@gmail.com>
There is still time to take advantage of the discounted booth fee of $50 if you submit your application for Richfield Art at the Mill by January 17, 2015.
Richfield Art at the Mill is a juried art &
fine craft fair and a plein air painting competition to be held on July 25, 2015. This is the 7th year for this event. The fair
is held outside nestled among the trees and surrounded by historical buildings
in the beautiful Richfield Nature & Historical Park (Washington County.)
Amenities for
exhibiting artists:
- Ample space between booths
- Easy pull-up for unloading
- Reasonable $50 booth fee (on or by 1-17-15) or $60 (between 1-18-15 and 3-14-15)
- Low jury fee of $10 (two jury dates of 1-20-15 and 3-17-15 with artist notification one week after)
- Discount on food
- Booth reliever
- Free coffee/pastries during setup time
- Tickets for historic buildings tour located in the park
- Friendly staff
The quality of our fair is
very important which is why (beginning in 2015) we are jurying all submitted photos
at the same time. There are two
Deadline Dates (lst Deadline: 1-17-15 and 2nd Deadline 3-14-15). Jurying will take place right after each
deadline with artist notification approximately one week thereafter. This assures the best arts and fine crafts will
be selected for exhibit. The number of
like exhibitors will be limited as well to assure a better balance and variety. (For example, the number of jewelry
exhibitors will be capped at seven. So,
apply early for best chance of selection.)
Advertising is very
important for art fairs. This event will
be widely advertised in print, broadcast & social media and promoted through
many local businesses. We want to reach as many potential attendees as
possible. Free admission to the fair and the extra benefit of being able to
tour historic buildings are attractive factors.
An application form and
guidelines are attached and also available at:

(Home Page under 2015
Events.) Feel free to call or e-mail
with any questions.
Happy New Year!
