CALLING ALL ARTISTS, CRAFTERS AND MAKERS OF ORIGINAL ART!

ArtFest 2011 
TO ALL ARTISTS, CRAFTERS AND MAKERS OF ORIGINAL ART:

On behalf of the Flatonia Chamber of Commerce I am pleased to announce the launch of the Chamber’s first annual Art Fest, which will be held in the spring of 2011.

This is an opportunity for artists like you to display their talent in our community. We have planned the event to occur simultaneously with our quarterly Market Days on March 5, 2011. Also on that day, Flatonia has been selected as a hand-off city for the Texas Independence Relay Runner's Race, which is an annual event that attracts large numbers of participants and their support groups. We anticipate an exciting, fun-filled day that will be highlighted with your artwork on display.

All types of artisans are being invited to the Art Fest, and their work will fall into one of two categories: 1) fine art, or 2) artisan crafts. Fine art exhibits will be distinguished from artisan crafts by location set-up. Exclusive spaces in the downtown area have been selected for fine art displays, and the artisan crafts will have a designated section within the Market Days vendor booth area. This entire area is on Main Street in Flatonia.

In order to ensure the success of the first annual Art Fest of Flatonia, there will be an aggressive advertising campaign beginning in January to reach artists and visitors in the San Antonio, Austin and Houston areas, as well as the bordering counties of Flatonia. We urge you to enter the Art Fest as soon as possible by completing and returning the attached application form. You may also go online for further information and any updates to the event. Visit us at www.flatoniachamber.com.

We will be proud to share your talent with our community, so please take this opportunity to apply now. Feel free to call me with any questions.

Sincerely,


Victoria Trahan Duncan, President
Flatonia Chamber of Commerce
