Calls for Artists
Hispanic Federation’s Feria de Artesanías
Saturday, September 12, 2015
10:00 am – 6:00 pm
The Hispanic Federation is hosting an Artisan Festival for Hispanic Heritage Month, and we are inviting artists to submit their portfolio via email or jpeg so we showcase their work at the Julia de Burgos Cultural Center Gallery next month. Email Raesha Cartagena at rcartagena@hispanicfederation.org.
We have an opening of 15-20 tables for artists to use and it will be free of charge. We are open to collaborative displays which include visual arts, craftsmanship, jewelry and clothing.
El Barrio is home to a diverse group of artists, artisans and craftsmen. This fair will showcase their work and allow community residents and others to explore, discover and support the craft of these local artists.
All the best,
Raesha Cartagena
