WAVE Festival Calling for Art Submissions
In honor of National Women’s History Month, Lourdes will host the 5th annual W.A.V.E. (Women, Artists, Visionaries, Entrepreneurs) Festival, a juried exhibition and sale of fine arts and crafts. This year’s event will be held in the Franciscan Center on Saturday, March 24. W.A.V.E. is currently accepting artist submissions for this year’s event. Deadline for submissions is Friday, March 2.
Requirements: All arts/crafts displayed must be created and handmade by the exhibitor. Women entrepreneurs are welcome to present services, products or affiliations that are generated by women. To ensure the integrity of the show, kits, imports or commercial items are not to be displayed or sold. The festival committee reserves the right to disallow any exhibitor not conforming to requirements, art or craft that does not meet the selective criteria or that is considered physically hazardous or offensive.
Jurying and Fee: The W.A.V.E. Committee will jury the entries and each artist will receive a notification of acceptance. Upon acceptance, the fee of $35 per space must be submitted by March 9 at 5 p.m. to reserve your spot. Payment is to be made by check only. Receipts of fees will be sent to your e-mail address.
Exhibit Space: An eight-foot table will be provided. One additional table may be requested for a deposit of $35. (The Committee reserves the right to reject additional table requests if necessary.) Please specify table and electricity needs on application.
