CHESTERTON ART FAIR NEWS


Plans are underway for the 44th annual art fair on August 3 and 4. One-third of the participants have received notices to rejury, based upon the recommendation of the Art Fair committee. The remaining two-thirds will rejury the next two years. Random selection process was used to determine the artists who will rejury.

Slide jurying will take place on May 18 by three working artists who are not exhibiting artists at our fair.
We need volunteers for a variety of projects: placing slides in trays for jurying, returning slides with accept/reject letters, counting postcards to mail to artists, and a variety of other things. Please call the gallery to volunteer your time. 

Thank you.

Gallery News

  • The prospectus has been mailed for the 51st Annual Woman's Club Show.  this is a two-dimensional painting and sculpture show that is not juried.  It's a great show for beginning artists to display their work.

  • Deadline to enter slides for jurying into the 44th Annual Chesterton Art Fair is May 1st.  This show is a highly competitive jurying process, so select only your best work and great slides to enter.  Don't clutter your booth slide with all of your work.  Present your work in the best possible manner.

Pick-up of Art Work

May and June bring two exhibitions into the entire downstairs galleries.  If you had two-dimensional artwork here for several years, please help us clean up the upstairs loft.  We have a committee currently checking all artwork into our inventory system.  When you remove work, please check it off your inventory list.  When you have a sale, you will not receive your check until we have your W-9 form on file.  Stop by and fill one out.  thanks for you help with this bookkeeping procedure.

ATTENTION ARTISTS!

In a recent review by our accountant, a recommendation was made that we ensure we have Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 on file for all artists, art teachers, and other independent contractors who do business with the gallery. We will begin to mail forms very soon. Thanks for your cooperation. This is an annual event so expect, next year, to have to give us another W-9.
