Call to Artists In Action Members
Salem Art Fair, July 15-17, 2005 Deadline: Friday & Saturday, July 8 & 9, 10:00 am to 1:00 pm. Purpose: Members of Artists in Action are asked to create and donate "boxes" to be raffled at the Salem Art Fair in our booth. 100% of monies raised will go to promote awareness of Artists In Action and its members. The Box: A "box" can be any type of container with or without a lid, and any shape. Medium: you can paint an existing box, or create your own box. It can be ceramic, wood, tile, mosaic, etc. It must be original. It must be well constructed and finished, i.e. no raw edges, sloppiness, or uneveness. It should be professional and artful. Remember that what we present to the public is a reflection on Artists In Action as a whole. We want to look good! Size: any, but if it is a small box, you may want to do a set of boxes, such as stacking or nesting. We want to get a good number of people wanting to purchase the raffle tickets so the box(es) should be substantial and significant, reflecting a minimum value of $25.00. Ideas: Keepsake box, gift box, game box, assemblage box, travel box, the contents of the box, a set of boxes (e.g. stacking boxes or nesting boxes), the box and contents of the box (with its own theme - travel box, garden box, seed box, kitchen box, paint box, tool box, pencil box, hat box, magazine box, memory box, photo box, CD box,etc.) These boxes can be functional or decorative. Please send me your additional ideas and I will pass it on to the members. Jury Decision: I have a small committee that will review your piece for originality, high quality, and appropriateness to the success of the raffle. The review will take place on Saturday, July 9th at 2:00 pm. ** To expedite the jury process, please contact Diane Trevett by email or phone to give a description of your box, including the size, materials being used, etc. to be sure you are headed in the right direction before you finish your piece.
