Call for Artists to Demonstrate their Art-Making Process

Participating artists will be responsible for bringing all required materials for the demonstration, set up and clean up. SCA will provide table space to set up the demonstration. We ask artists to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to their scheduled time to set up their work space.

Demonstrating artists are welcome to bring postcards or their own promotional materials to share with the audience. If you wish to sell your work, vendor space can be rented directly from Hatch Street Studios for $100.
