Richfield Art at the Mill deadline extended to June 1, 2015

from: artfairrhs
@gmail.com
 
 
 
Due to interest in exhibiting at Richfield Art at the Mill, we have decided to expand our venue and extend the application deadline to June 1, 2015. However, we are no longer accepting applications for jewelry or wood artisans as the quota for these media has been reached. 

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 $60 booth fee
  • Low jury fee of $10 (waived for returning artists)
  • Discount on food
  • Booth reliever
  • Free coffee/pastries during setup time
  • Tickets for historic buildings tour located in the park
  • Friendly staff

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: www.richfieldhistoricalsociety.org.
(Home Page - Upcoming Events - Call for Artists) Feel free to call or e-mail with any questions.

Artist Studio Space to Share at 133 W. Pittsburgh Ave. in Milwaukee

from:  Charles H. McMullen email: chm@dewittross.com

I am sending you this e-mail in order to see if you would be interested in sharing space with some fellow art students of Jim Hempel’s in renting
Studio 501 in the building located at 133 West Pittsburg Avenue in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Studio 501 is located just down the hall from Jim Hempel’s studio).

By way of background, five of us current lease Studio 501, but one of us is dropping out for family related reasons, and we would like to replace him with one or more persons in order to defray the individual cost of renting Studio 501.

We understand that the landlord is willing to enter into a new one year lease for Studio 501 at the rate of $600 per month, which would mean an individual rent of $120 per month if five of us were to rent Studio 501.

In considering this opportunity, I would tell you the following:

1.        For myself, and I believe for each of the others currently sharing space in Studio 501 (who are copied on this e-mail message), having a studio space to go to has increased the time I actually spend painting because I found that, despite my good intentions, painting at home just didn’t happen for me (or at least not as frequently as I would have liked).
2.        Studio 501 is bright and spacious.
3.       We are a group of painters who get along with each other.
4.       Having Jim Hempel’s studio almost next door is wonderful if you take any classes from Jim because you can leave all your art supplies in Studio 501 and go to classes with Jim without having to carry all your art supplies up to Jim’s studio for each class.

Please let me and the other people copied on this e-mail know if you have any interest in joining us in Studio 501 (positive responses only, please).  We would, of course, be happy to give you a tour of the space and answer any questions you may have.

Thanks,

Charlie McMullen

Art Carnival April 8 at Studio Lounge in Bayview

From: Alice <rockinredhead52@gmail.com>

Sent: Tuesday, March 24, 2015 9:12 AM
Subject: Art Carnival=costumed drawing session meets geeky themed burlesque
Art Carnival is back with a Tim Burton inspired show on Wednesday April 8th at Studio Lounge in Bayview! Art Carnival is Milwaukee's premiere bi-monthly themed variety burlesque show combined with costumed figure drawing. Last year some of the themes were Pink Flamingos; an homage to John Waters, Epic 80's movies and Americana; take me out to the ballgame.

Doors open at 7:00pm so you can take in the art at Studio Lounge or enjoy a delicious craft cocktail. The drawing session begins promptly at 8:00pm and goes until 8:30pm. Each performs does a 5 minute pose. The show begins at 8:45pm showcasing some of Milwaukee's finest burlesque & sideshow talents!
