As you plan your 2016 art fair schedule, I would like
to invite you to apply toArt at the Mill. This is a juried art &
fine craft fair to be held on July 23, 2016. This is the 8th 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 $55 booth fee (before or on 4-1-16) or $65 (between 4-2-16 and 7-1-2016)
- Low jury fee of $10 (waived for returning artists)
- Bottled water for each booth (2)
- 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. The number of
like exhibitors will be limited to assure a good 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 also very
critical 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 available at:
