2nd Annual Ozark Artery Art Show & Competition Entry Date

The cost to enter is $8 for one piece and $5 for additional pieces, with a limit of three pieces. Cash prizes will be awarded, including a $100 grand prize offered by a local donor. No saw-tooth hangers, all pieces must be wired for hanging. In the case of 3D works, suitable display equipment must be provided by the artist. Organizers reserve the right to reject any work for any reason.

The show will be open for viewing during Yellow House events through Jan. 10, including an arts and crafts show* scheduled for Dec. 2, and special hours Dec. 6, 13 and 20 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. A reception will be held Dec. 2 from 4-7:30 p.m. Winners will be announced at the reception which will be free and open to the public.

Artists are encouraged to offer their work for sale, but it is not a requirement. For those who do price their pieces, images of the work along with the asking price will be posted on the Ozark Artery Facebook page with the artist’s permission. A 20 percent commission will be collected from sales, with 10 percent going to The Artery and 10 percent going to The Yellow House to help cover expenses for the show and use of the facility.

* If you would like to have a booth at the Dec. 2 arts and craft show, Garrett Melby Art is the contact for the Yellow House. He says there is no cost to set up, but 10% commission is charged on sales up to $20 as a maximum donation to the Yellow House. There is limited space inside, but outside spaces are available, weather permitting. Storytelling by Marideth Sisco and Danette House is also planned for 2 p.m. that day.
