Jericho Arts Council sends out call for artists
(Submitted Photo)
BAINBRIDGE – The Jericho Arts Council (JAC) of Bainbridge is looking to sponsor 20 juried Artists for a month long, sidewalk exhibition of art.
For the 6th year, Artists will express their creativity, on unique Adirondack “Canoe Paddle Chairs” or upon petite child sized versions of the chairs. This year the theme is “Sunrise,Sunset” and diverse interpretations are welcome!
JAC will provide artists with the chairs, paint and a stipend of $125 for the adult chairs and $75 for the Children’s chairs. Cash awards of $50 to $100 will be granted in five categories. Artists will be promoted with bio’s on the JAC website as well as in a media conference, regional press releases, posters, social media and on maps of the Art Trail.
The art will be displayed on Bainbridge sidewalks from April 22 until Memorial Day weekend. For a month, photos of each piece of art will be posted on the website along with the opportunity for bidding in advance of the Live Auction to take place on Saturday, May 23 at the General Clinton Canoe Regatta.
Proceeds from the May 23 Art Auction will go to the Jericho Arts Council to support our Artists & Musicians and to create future events.
While the artist’s finished work will be on display for a month, the Regatta Row Street Art Fest is one afternoon only, on Saturday, May 16 from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. Artists will be meeting the public near their Art.
Representatives from the JAC state that with the music of over 25 street musicians filling the air, local merchant participation, the art being inspirational and the attendees surprised by the generous spirit of all, it will be a unique and very sweet day.
“It was a great experience,” said last year's Best in Show winner, Jessica Tefft. “It was a great way to step out of my comfort zone a little, but my main reason for doing it was to try to inspire others to do the same.”
This is a family festival, based on the volunteerism of the artistic community. Artists are encouraged to promote their talent and to distribute cards or advertisements. Apply today! Please share this adventure with your social media postings! Artist applications and details are online at www.jerichoarts.com. Questions and applications can be directed to the JAC Gallery Committee “Regatta Row 2020” at jacarttrail@gmail.com or by calling Rachel Hares at 607-643-2211, or Nancy Kitchen at 908-347-0091.
