ARTISTS WANTED FOR M&T BANK CLOTHESLINE FESTIVAL
Long-Running Fine Art and Crafts Festival Celebrates 56th Anniversary
ROCHESTER, NY -- Artists from across New York state are invited to apply for spaces at the M&T Bank Clothesline Festival, a juried fine art and crafts festival held on the grounds of the Memorial Art Gallery. The long-running event, which this year takes place on Saturday and Sunday, September 8 and 9, will showcase more than 400 artists residing in all counties of New York.
HOW TO APPLY
A downloadable application is available at <http://clothesline.rochester.edu>. The application deadline is Friday, March 23, with space assignments mailed Monday, June 11. If spaces remain, updates will be posted on the website. For more information call the Memorial Art Gallery events office at 585-276-8950, or email <clothesline@mag.rochester.edu>.
ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
Fifty-six years after the first Clothesline, Rochester's largest and longest-running fine art and crafts festival continues to evolve. It's now the place to experience all-day live entertainment, sample food from some of Rochester's favorite vendors, enjoy free family art activities, visit the museum, and of course, browse and buy original artwork throughout the grounds.
Each year sees the addition of more festivals, but Clothesline remains a favorite with artists. Because the Gallery charges admission and screens the work of the exhibitors, serious shoppers are more in evidence than at other festivals.
Clothesline remains popular with visitors, too. In recent years, it has earned five "Best of Rochester" awards from City Newspaper readers.
