Artist registration is NOW OPEN for the 2nd annual Fall Art Show & Sell and Silent Auction to benefit the Old North End's own arts magnet school on October 15th from 10 am - 2 pm at City Hall.

We are looking for 30 artists and artisans to participate in the show! If you make art or crafts YOU can sign up online, or encourage your friends and colleagues to participate. We need at least 20 artists to make the show happen.

We are looking for original artwork in a broad range of media -- from painting to puppetry, ceramics to glass, jewelry to handbags, knitwear to mixed media. Established and emerging artists are highly encouraged to apply.

If you've always wanted to sell your work but haven't had the opportunity, this is a time to try! The show will be FUN!

Benefits to artists:
- Artists will retain 50% of their sales, with 50% to benefit IAA.
- A central cashier will handle all sales - artists can choose whether or not to be there in person (must be on site for setup and takedown).
- Great visibility at the City Hall location with tons of foot traffic near the Farmers Market and on Church St.
- A chance to come together with other artists to support IAA, Vermont's only arts magnet school
- FREE TO APPLY: no application fee (with silent auction donation)

Last year, the 25 art show artists and silent auction raised over $5000 for IAA programs. The school depends on the PTO to fund pieces of the arts integration curriculum (like ONE strings, artist residencies) as well as community events, teacher and library grants, school beautification projects, and more. ​So it's important for implementing the core mission of the school.
