Exhibitor Requirements and Responsibilities:
The Holidaze Art Festival is open to fine artists and crafts people who display works of original design that are executed by the artist. Please check the general categories on the application that most closely applies to your work.

Unacceptable Works Include:
Mass produced | commercial or imported products | copies
| kits | molded or prefabricated works

Repeat artists are not required to submit photographs unless you are planning on bringing new designs. If you have new work that you want us to consider using your work in our advertising please submit with your application.

New Artists to the festival must submit several images of their work as 4" x 6" prints or electronically as JPG's. Images can be burned to a CD or emailed via the http://www.holidazearts.com website. Images must be labeled with the artists name, media, and a name or general description of the piece.

If accepted into the festival a random sampling of artist's works may be displayed on a Gallery page of the website with the artist's approval.

Applications will be judged by the quality of the images submitted. Festival representatives will expect that the works submitted for consideration will represent the overall quality of the pieces artists will be displaying/selling. Only items representative of the juried media created by the artist can be sold. The arts festival committee has the right to reject items not juried into the festival.

Display and Setup
Each booth space is approximately 8' deep x 12' wide and all displays and materials must fit into the booth space. Artists are responsible for providing their own display materials. The Convention Center will be available for setup at 8:00a.m. on Friday and all exhibits must be set and in place by 2:00p.m. Artists must oversee their exhibit at all times and display their work for the duration of the Festival. Failure to abide by this requirement will constitute automatic rejection from future Holidaze Arts Festivals.
