Shreveport Regional Arts Council is still seeking artists’ submissions for DECK THE HALLS 2006, a juried holiday arts sale exhibition featuring works from regional artists throughout Northwest Louisiana, says project manager Angelique Feaster. The annual arts extravaganza will be held November 17, 2006 -January 6, 2007 at artspace, 710 Texas Street.

Artists can submit artworks for jury review on Thursday, October 19th and Friday, October 20th, 10:00 am to 7:00 pm; Saturday, October 21st, 10:00 am to 5:00 pm. These submissions may be entered digitally, by slides, or as actual works that will be entered into the exhibition. Everything that will be offered for sale must be juried.

Artists’ Roster artists along with area Arts Organizations may submit actual works to be sold. Last year’s DECK THE HALLS exhibition displayed and sold the works of over forty artists with a wide range of styles and mediums.

Artists recorded almost $25,000 in sales during the eight-week sales period. Artists and arts organizations in Northwest Louisiana are invited to submit works to be juried for this year’s event.

Each artist can have up to 15 pieces of artwork on sale at all times during the exhibition. All artwork sold will be based on a commission of 70% for the artist and 30% for artspace.

All media and dimensions of work will be accepted for consideration. This includes paintings, drawings, sculptures, fine craft, music (gospel, jazz, classical, etc) CDs and DVDs, jewelry, original books, stationery, culinary arts, textile fashions and other types of original artwork.
