ARTISANS
ROAD TRIP 2020: LAST CALL TO ARTISTS!
October
may seem far away, but now is the time to apply to be a part of the seventeenth
annual Artisans Road Trip! Applications need to be postmarked by March 1st,
2020 in order to be accepted. Why so early in the year? Quite simply, it takes
a lot of time and behind the scenes work to make a great event like A.R.T.
happen. Once we have our membership finalized, then we get to work on designing
the brochure, updating the website, and beginning to get the word out about all
of our artists!
Why should you be a part of A.R.T.? For the artisans involved, the
Road Trip is a powerful networking and marketing opportunity. In
addition to the October event, participating artists also benefit from
year-round advertising with thousands of brochures distributed; a regularly
updated blog; 24/7 website; plus group gallery exhibitions (including one this
year at the Pearson Lakes Art Center in Okoboji)!
All artists in the region are encouraged to apply for the
upcoming 2020 season! A.R.T. is
organized and run by artists for artists.
Together we work to increase art exposure, introducing new art styles to
the community and new customers to local artists. And we want YOU to join us! A.R.T. is always looking for new and
returning artists!
For more information, links to the official A.R.T. blog and
current artist biographies, as well as a downloadable .PDF of the 2020 Artist
Application & Prospectus, go to www.artisansroadtrip.com.
