Call to Artists
PORTLAND OPEN STUDIOS
Deadline March 15, 2009
Metro Portland Artists wanted in all media to open their studios to the public on October 10 & 11 for studios east of the Willamette River and October 17 & 18 for westside studios.  Artists may choose to be open both weekends.  There are many advantages to being a Portland Open Studios artist. It is an opportunity for artists to show their art processes, sell their artwork, build an audience and communicate with the public. Artists who are selected for the event by a panel of three art professionals in a blind jury will have an image of their artwork published in the Tour Guide and on the web.
Special Scholarship Opportunity for artists between 20 and 30 years old: Kimberly Gales Emerging Artists Scholarship to Portland Open Studios. The recipient will have all fees waived and receive a $100 stipend.
Information, directions and the online application at http://www.portlandopenstudios.com. Application available online January 15, 2009.
Deadline for artist’s application and scholarship both: 3/15/09.
