Art on the Bricktown Canal

For the second year, TAG is sponsoring an art demonstration and sale against the backdrop of the Bricktown Canal. Following the success of last year, we are hoping to delight the visitors with actual demonstrations by the artists who create their individual works and offer them for sale.

TAG is a 501 © 3 organization whose purpose is to promote the development of visual arts throughout Oklahoma.

Venue for the Demonstrations/Sale:
Bricktown Canal, Sheridan Avenue and Mickey Mantle Drive. Sites for individual artists are approximately 4’x8’. Many of the spaces are shaded. Artists are responsible for their own equipment and set-up. No tents are permitted, but small umbrellas can be used for shade, if needed. Artists are responsible for their own set-up and take-down.

Application Process:

All artists who belong to TAG member groups are encouraged to apply for space at “Art on the Bricktown Canal”. Submissions must be original works of art created by the submitting artist.
The deadline for application to “Art on the Bricktown Canal” is August 15, 2006.
Acceptance notification will be no later than August 25, 2006.

To apply, each artist must submit at least three slides or three digital images of the artwork. Slides must be mounted in cardboard or plastic and clearly marked with artist’s name, the dimensions of the work and the medium. Please mark the slide to indicate the top and front.
Digital images must be submitted on a CD Rom as jpeg, RGB, 300-400 dpi, no larger than 8x10. The files must be labeled with only the numbers that correspond with the image list.
Please include a self-addressed, stamped envelope or CD mailer to have slides returned.
The intent of this event is to offer the public the chance to see how artists create their art. All artists are encouraged to be actively working on their art in their space or to participate in the formal demonstrations during the hours of the event.

Entry fee is $25. This fee is not refundable. Checks should be made payable to TAG and sent with slides or CD’s along with the application. Send to:
