May 20
Marion, Iowa (Cedar Rapids area)
Presented by: Marion Arts Festival
50 Artists
Deadline: January 17
Application fee: $25; Booth fee: $250
Marion is a "vintage uptown" type of community, and a part of the Cedar Rapids metro area. Our show is one-day, intimate and purposeful, with the mission to be an event through which you will thrive.
(Here, we're obligated to insert that we're volunteer-driven, kind of hokey and maybe more than a little mom-and-pop...in good ways, mostly.)
For you:
- Cash awards totaling $5000
- Friday set up
- Amenities include an artists' reception, convenient/free parking
- overnight security
- Block-rate hotel options & energetic volunteers
2017 marks the 25th anniversary of the Marion Arts Festival! Further, folded into our festival day will be the unveiling of 20 pieces of public art in the alleys adjacent to the park, a project funded by ArtPlace America. (With ArtPlace America's executive director Jamie Bennett as our honored guest.)
