The Beverly Hills Art Show - A Call to Artists

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., June 30 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ --

WHAT: The City of Beverly Hills is seeking artists to show and sell work at
the "Affaire in the Gardens" Art Show, held in Beverly Gardens Park in Beverly
Hills.

WHEN: The deadline for artists to apply is July 20th (application must be
postmarked by then). The show will be held Saturday, October 17th and 18th.

WHERE: City of Beverly Hills / 501 Doheny Road / Beverly Hills, CA 90210

DETAILS: To receive an application, call us or log on to our website at
http://www.beverlyhills.org/affaireinthegardens

The show is 37 years old this fall and attracts up to forty-thousand art
lovers at each show. The show is a famously fun meet-and-greet site as well
as a place to sell art; area collectors and art dealers routinely attend this
event along with the occasional celebrity, ranging from former President
Clinton to Michael Jackson. The site is an immaculately groomed,
four-block-long linear park in the center of Beverly Hills.

Artists' work must be in one of the categories:
Painting / Sculpture / Drawing / Traditional Printmaking / Photography /
Ceramics / Glass / Mixed Media (hard & soft) / Digital Art

There is a major emphasis in this show on original art, hand-crafted from raw
or recycled/raw materials. Only 10 percent of work at the event may be in the
class of reproductions. Exceptions are all fine art "original prints" such as
engravings, photographs, etc., which should be numbered and signed, as should
all reproductions in the sculpture category or other category where molds are
a primary part of the art-making process. We thank artists for observing
these fine art traditions.
