Just a few short months from now, it’ll be time for Alaska State Fair! Wanted to reach out and invite you to enter your art this year. The 2020 theme is, “Seeing is Believing”.
As the Superintendent of Art Exhibits, I wanted to let you in on the theme of the fair a little early. That will give you the time you need to create that prize winning piece that you’ve been thinking about.
This is an especially interesting theme for us visual artists, so I’m really looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
There are many placement ribbons, cash as well as gift certificates to be awarded to the winners.
It’s super easy to enter into the state fair art show. First go online to see what is required for your entry to be accepted at https://www.alaskastatefair.org. Go to EXHIBITS and ART to see requirements. Non-perishable drop-off is tentatively Friday, August 14th, 11am-7pm and Saturday, August 15th, 11am-7pm.
Be sure and check the Alaska State Fair website before you make the trip to make sure you have everything you need. Also, to confirm drop-off before you make the trip.
Good luck and see you at the fair!
