Attention Artists!

Please mark your calendars and plan to attend Spring Fest 2007, downtown Dade City’s annual celebration of the arts featuring live jazz, fine art exhibits, master gardeners, health & wellness exhibits and more. We hope you will be a part of this exciting artistic happening, scheduled for Saturday, March 24, 2007.

The popular Fools for Fine Art preview party returns this year as well. This elegant evening reception, with live music, food and artwork for sale, will be held Friday, March 23, more details to follow.

Please review the attached materials and application and return to us for consideration no later than Feb. 16, 2007. Due to limited booth space, early submission is highly recommended! Slides, digital images or color photographs will be accepted. Please include booth fee and a self-addressed, stamped envelope for return of your materials. Artists will be notified of their acceptance in late February.

If I can answer any questions, please give me a call. We look forward to seeing you downtown at Spring Fest!
