‘Be a Part of Art’ call for artists
The Friends of the Library Art Committee, Redmond Branch, announces a Call for Artists for its first annual “BE a PART of the ART” fundraising event. The fundraiser will benefit the Friends of the Redmond Library, which in turn helps to fund programs in support of the Redmond Community.
The fundraising event is open to all two and three dimensional artists residing in Central Oregon who may submit two (2) pieces of art. All work must be for sale. Images must be framed or on stretcher bars and must adhere to library requirements for hanging artwork. The “BE a PART of the ART” exhibition will be held in the Redmond Branch Library from March 9 through April 6, 2013. A reception in support of the event is planned.
The Redmond Branch Library has gained a reputation for exciting exhibitions of fine art. The “BE a PART of the ART” fundraiser will be the first of its kind in the library. This exhibition presents another excellent opportunity for Central Oregon artists to demonstrate the breadth of talent in this community.
For this event, exhibiting artists will contribute 40% of the sale price of their artwork in support of the Friends of the Library.
The Redmond Branch library is located at 827 SW Deschutes Ave., Redmond, OR 97756. Library hours are Monday – Friday: 10 – 6 PM, Tuesday: 10 – 8 PM and Saturday: 10 – 5 PM.
