Calling all artists for the Moore Park Art Show

SOUTH PARIS — The Moore Park Art Show in South Paris is seeking exhibitors for a celebration and sale of original arts, Saturday, August 13, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Rain date August 14). The day will feature 60 artists and artisans with live entertainment and fine fare. The event, presented by the Town of Paris Parks and Recreation Department, is sponsored by the Western Maine Art Group and the Mahoosuc Arts Council.

Artists are being sought representing a broad spectrum of art including paintings, drawings, photography, wood, metal and glass sculpture; fine jewelry; handmade prints; fiber and textile/fiber arts and more. All art work must be the original design and creation of the exhibitor. Booths are limited. Artists also have the opportunity to submit work for awards judging.

“In addition to being a beautiful setting, Moore Park is one of the best venues for an art show because it is located on one of the most-traveled roads in New England. Serving as the busiest tourist pipeline in Western Maine, Route 26 affords abundant opportunities for our exhibitors to capture an audience,” noted Show Director Aranka Matolcsy.

Single 10 x 10-foot booths are $60 for a single exhibitor, $35 a piece for a shared booth up to four exhibitors, and $75 for booths shared by groups of five or more. Applications must be received by July 15 for inclusion in the Moore Park Art Program. Food vendors are also welcome to inquire about applications.
