The Art Festival at Mercato will be held January 28 and 29, 2023.
One of the defining designs of this festival is to present a unique group of artists who participate at this event and not other nearby events to allow patrons to enjoy a refreshing event. Part of our jury process is to bring in different artists with new work and a new variety of work. We always believe that the quality of art is paramount and also hope to offer a unique and personal experience.
October 15 deadline. We may decide to close applications prior to this deadline should we discover that we have enough applications to fill the show.
