Queenstown Contemporary - The Big Art Sale - Submissions Open.
Region: Queenstown
Dates: Mon, 16 November 2020 - Fri, 20 November 2020 @ Submit by 20th November
We want to have a nice festive close to this year so, in association with Watson & Wyatt Events, we have decided to host THE BIG ART SALE!
This is a chance for all of us artists to try and stuff a few stockings for Christmas and sell some of our stock works. We’d love to have you involved! If you’re keen, please reply to Ann Wyatt at this email address [email protected] by Friday 20th November and simply just give your name, phone number, how many pieces you’ll be bringing and what your medium is - and that’s it! Then we’ll be in touch.
Please also share this with any artists you know in QT Lakes/Central Otago.
Here’s the info: -
*Up to 5 artworks per artist (if one sells, we’ll put another up…) Original artworks only please, made by you!
*All mediums accepted including paint, print, photography, jewellery, sculpture etc.
*Size limit 1200mm wide. (No super heavy wall works please!).
*Everything strung up & prepared, ready to hang/install.
