CALL FOR PRINTMAKERS!
This just in from Cherokee St - more info coming as Dec 6th gets closer but for now all you printmakers out there listen up!
CHEROKEE PRINT LEAGUE HOLIDAY SALE!
In celebration of the growing arts scene in the Cherokee neighborhood and in greater Saint Louis, several businesses on Cherokee street have organized a holiday show and sale to take place Saturday, December 6th from 11-9. This indoor print-themed craft show will take place all along the street, with businesses "hosting" artists from all over the metro area whose work is print-related (printmaking, letterpress, printed fabrics, etc.)
WE'D LOVE TO HAVE YOU PARTICIPATE!
This is organized as a sale rather than an art show, and we expect a huge turnout, so it would be a great way to make some cash before the holiday season. Hosting businesses will be extensively advertising the event, and 100% of participation fees go toward advertising. You will be provided with a table in an indoor, heated space, and your name and location will be included on a map of the event that will be available the day of the sale.
Here are the details:
Participating venues:
City Art Supply
Snowflake City Stock
All Along Press
Fort Gondo Compound for the Arts
the Community Arts & Media Project
Firecracker Press
APOP Records
Boots Contemporary Art Space
Participation fee: $50 (35 for students)
Approximate Table Size: 3 x 5' with optional wall space.
Advertising: Sauce Magazine/RFT, KDHX, letterpress posters by Firecracker, screenprint posters by All Along
To reserve your table, please drop off your fee (in cash!) to Firecracker Press at 2838 Cherokee Street no later than November 14th.
For more info on the event, you can call:
