Greetings, Artists!
49 people have signed up to drop work. If you haven’t, here’s the form.

Don’t forget your inventory needs to be done before you deliver, and you need to bring everything at the same time.

Additionally, you need two labels for each display piece. The end of this email has a map.

Marketing –

• If we’re not already following you, what’s your Instagram?
• The easiest way to market is to tag us in your posts and we’ll share to our stories or remix if you have those permissions set.
• Only use Facebook? Just tag @97116artshow in your post
  Mark yourself as “Going” on our Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1460413595227784
• Bluesky post by April: https://bsky.app/profile/april-hoff.bsky.social/post/3m5iucumd2s24
• Nextdoor post about show from Artingales
• When you drop work we’ll have posters and postcard sized materials you may take, or I’ve attached the 8×10 and postcard images.
  
  Cherie Savoie Tintary, thank you for spreading so many of them around, and for contacting TVCreates for us! Sue Bliss, thank you for the press release!

Volunteers –Also thank you to people who have signed up to help us pull this off! We always need volunteers to make it happen, so if you can help there is a whole list of things to choose from. Even sitting jobs if mobility is a concern.

Below are the archived emails from 2024

November 7, 2024

Hello, artists!

If you think you missed previous emails, you can find them here: https://www.97116artshow.com/artist-correspondence/

Here’s a whole bunch of information, some of it repeated from the last email. Visit that link above if you don’t know your artist number.

Maximum Quantities

• [5] Exhibited pieces $150 each or less (2D hung 12″ x 12″ or smaller and/or 3D tabled at 12″ x 12″ x 12″ or smaller including frames & bases)
• [3] Matted or board-backed bin work at 16″ x 20″ or smaller and $150 each or less – must have plastic protective sleeves.
• [10] Cards at $10 each or less – okay to label with one sticker each, must have name, artist #, and price. Should also have plastic protection to avoid fingerprints, but not required if you don’t have the sleeves. If it’s a greeting card, you should include the envelope for the patron. Cards can be duplicates from last year, but fresh is better.

Didn’t Make Five Exhibit Pieces? – Creation date doesn’t matter, but work does have to fit size requirements and be new to the 97116 Art Show.

Labels (x 2 this year PLUS Fill out the Inventory) Use either this Word or PDF documents for labels. Just use your best handwriting if the fillable PDF fields don’t work for you. If your work is too small for affixing, securely tape it to a hang tag. Bin work needs labels too, but cards may have a sticker with artist name, artist number, and price. If there is room, you may also secure a business card to the back or bottom of your work or in sleeves of cards, etc.

Follow Display guidelines, this year 2D can be wired or attached via Command Strips that YOU provide.

Inventory prior to delivery: Every artist needs to fill out accurate inventory for each piece, plus have usual labels. This is for sales and the gallery-covered insurance once installation is complete and approved. You must list each display piece, card, and bin piece separately. The deadline for this is just before you drop your work, so do it before you bring work and make sure it matches what you bring.

Artwork Drop Dates / Times: (firm, okay to send someone with your work)

Deliver everything at the same time.

• Friday Nov 8, 6:30 – 8:30PM

Hello, Artists!
It’s wonderful to see so many familiar names, thank you for making us one of your community art shows each year. Newcomers, welcome! We hope your experience with the show keeps you coming back.
The end of this email will contain your VERY import artist number. It needs to be on every label / sticker, including each card. This is how we sell your artwork. Parents of April’s students, if you need assistance in readying for the show, talk to me.

The second most important thing is your inventory.

Inventory: Every artist needs to fill out accurate inventory for each piece, plus have usual labels. This is for sales and the gallery-covered insurance once installation is complete and approved. You must list each display piece, card, and bin piece separately. The deadline for this is just before you drop your work, so do it before you bring work and make sure it matches what you bring.

Labels (x 2 this year PLUS Fill out the Inventory) Use either this Word or PDF documents for labels. Just use your best handwriting if the fillable PDF fields don’t work for you. If your work is too small for affixing, securely tape it to a hang tag. Bin work needs labels too, but cards may have a sticker with artist name, artist number, and price. If there is room, you may also secure a business card to the back or bottom of your work.

Marketing: We’ll rely on a lot of word of mouth and social media sharing since the Oktoberfest fundraiser was a bust. If you post a work that’ll be in the show, please tag @97116ARTSHOW so we can promote you too.

Pick Up Slip: When you drop your work, your pick up slip will be made and left for unsold artwork, so all of your work, bin work, and cards need to be delivered at the same time.

Payouts: By Dec 7th for opening weekend sales, by Dec 31st for subsequent sales

October 12, 2024

Hello, Artists!

Despite what you may have heard, April and Emily are producing the 97116 Art Show again this year. 97116 artist and gallery director, Tyler Brumfield, reached out to ask if we’d be interested in exhibiting at the Kathrin Cawein Gallery at Pacific University. We said yes. After meeting with gallery coordinator and 97116 artist, Stevie Woods, we learned they hoped to exhibit longer than our show runs which means a few significant changes for 2024. Please take a look at the listed changes and if you’ve already registered but these aren’t acceptable, let April know and she can withdraw your entry.

What’s New:

• Longer exhibit
• Accurate inventory required
• Two different payout dates
• Choose payout method on inventory form
• Only three days for dropping work
• Only one day for unsold work pick up
• Fewer funds for marketing
• Okay to use Command strips
• Pick up slip made during drop off
• Gallery handles reception & no-host alcohol

Exhibit: Nov 15th – Dec 7, Live grab-n-go sales opening weekend, then online sales and red dots Nov 18-Dec 7

Pick Up Unsold Work: Sunday Dec. 8th 12pm – 4pm only, okay to send someone

Marketing: We’ll rely on a lot of word of mouth and social media sharing since the Oktoberfest fundraiser was a bust.

Pick Up Slip: When you drop your work, your pick up slip will be made and left for unsold artwork, so all of your work, bin work, and cards need to be delivered at the same time.

Reception: The reception will be Friday Nov. 15th from 6pm-10pm and all food / drinks will be facilitated by Cawein Gallery / Pacific University / Bon Appétit. Expect alcohol to be no-host.

What’s still the same:
