Yuletide Applications are Now Available

YOU ARE INVITED TO APPLY FOR:

 Yuletide 2012

         November 15-17, 2012

SPONSORED BY THE SPOKANE ART SCHOOL

YULETIDE 2012   Yuletide is the SAS’s fun, holiday indoor event of fine arts and crafts.  Yuletide will be held at the MAC in the two classrooms, the Gilkey Room, and hallways on two levels.  Booth space is available for up to 30 artists.  The event will open on Thursday noon, November 15 and will continue through Saturday, November 17.  That weekend will be regular Campbell House and gallery hours, so we are anticipating festive crowds.  (For information about the MAC visit its website at northwestmuseum.org. Yuletide will end its event Saturday at 4:30 pm with Artist Awards, this year of $50 in cash or equivalent each for “People’s Choice” and “Artists’ Choice.” 

ART AND CRAFT WORKS   Yuletide seeks high quality, original, individually produced works that display consistent craftsmanship.  Acceptable media include ceramics, paintings, prints, drawings, mixed media, photographs, jewelry, glass, woodwork, specialty food items, sculpture, and fiber arts.   In addition, we are looking for seasonal holiday items such as cards, wreaths, menorahs, wrapping paper, clothing, toys, candles, soap, and ornaments.  We will accept nothing made from kits or commercial molds, or with the help of an instructor.  Although there are some sales of work over $200 for an item at Yuletide, the bulk of sales occur between $20 - $50.  Think about your own gift giving to friends and family in considering your Yuletide sales strategy.  

ARTIST SELECTION   Both new artists and established artists are encouraged to apply.  Artists will be juried on the basis of digital images of their work.  The jury will select participants representing a balanced variety of media.  DIGITAL images and application must be received by Friday, September 7, 2012, to be considered.  Jury results will be sent before or by Friday, October 5, 2012, along with more detailed information.

OPERATIONS and FINANCIAL INFORMATION   For Yuletide 2012 participating artists will pay a flat booth fee of $200, due upon your acceptance.  There are no other commissions or added fees.  It is acceptable for two artists to share a booth (and expenses and booth tending) by submitting their images as one application.  SAS reserves the right to reproduce accepted images for advertising purposes. Artists must have a current city business license and are responsible for collecting sales tax. SAS will advertise for the event through mailings, newspaper and media as well as email the Yuletide announcement to participating artists to send to their customers.  Booths must be manned by artists or their representatives throughout the event.  Yuletide volunteers will help direct customer traffic, booth-sit, sell raffle tickets, and other things throughout the event.  There will be a security guard on duty, and the building will be locked at night.  Yuletide is free to the public, but the galleries and Campbell House are subject to the MAC’s admission fee.  Free parking is available in the MAC garage and on the street.  Beyond our costs, proceeds from the Yuletide event will directly support SAS educational programs.  

DEADLINE   Applications must reach us no later than 5:00 PM on Friday, September 7, 2011.  Applications may be mailed or hand delivered to the Spokane Art School 809 W. Garland Ave.  Please refer to the next page for complete mailing or hand delivery details.

DRAWING MARATHON
With Cyndy Wilson and Tobe Harvey
Spokane Art School’s Tradition Lives On
Saturday and Sunday, June 16 and 17, 2012 - 10:00am to 5:00pm
Spokane Art Supply, 1303 North Monroe St. Spokane
Tuition: $100. + $30 model fee
Adults 16+ years Tobe Harvey

Supply List Available 

Spend the weekend completely absorbed in an intensive investigation of seeing and drawing. This marathon involves working
with models in an energetic atmosphere of exploration. This workshop gives you an opportunity to work with two different
instructors for six hours a day over a two day period. Helpful to students and teachers of all levels, figure drawing is the
ultimate challenge for an artist.

Two nude models will be provided for the two days. Each instructor brings his/her own perspective to the figure drawing
process and works in a different way, setting up problems and contexts for working with a model. These instructors are
particularly passionate about drawing, both work distinctly, and both are experienced with the teaching and drawing of the
figure.

About the Artist/Instructors
Cyndy Wilson teaches art at Spokane Falls Community College and is a printmaker.

Tobe Harvey was born and raised in Eastern Montana and currently works as an artist and instructor at Spokane Falls
Community College. He holds degrees from WSU and Montana State University-Bozeman. Harvey says of his work, “As
an artist I am able to create the best moments of my existence through personal reflection and the arrangement of visual
elements.”

Spokane Art School Upcoming Events

Spokane Art School is working hard to reestablish its place in the Spokane and regional art community. Although there have been setbacks some programs continue with the help of generous donors, and the MAC Foundation. We are pleased to say that our work with outreach programs such as Crosswalk and the Martin Luther King, Jr. after school program were reinstated last year.  Of course, Yuletide was back thanks to scores of volunteers and the turnout was great.  Many of you expressed a real delight in seeing the return of this annual tradition.  Plans are in the works for some new partnerships. 

Here is a look at what we have in store for 2012

·         The Volunteers of America Crosswalk Program continues…

·        A partnership with Center Pointe to begin ceramics classes in the summer of 2012

·        Partnership with Holy Names Music Center to begin after school classes at Havermale School incorporating music and art for the fall of 2012.

·        Drawing Marathon, a two day drawing workshop in partnership with Spokane Art Supply in June 2012.
