Preparations are going forward for our 2023 Juried Fine Art Show which will be held from April 7 through the 15th at the Sonora Opera Hall on Washington Street in downtown Sonora . Postmark deadline for submissions is Friday, March 17. We are teaming up with Tuolumne County Arts on a concurrent Student Show at the Main Library on Greenley Street.
The 67th Art Show last year was the first Show held in spring. Previous shows have been fall events. The spring dates coincided with Art Week, an event sponsored by Tuolumne County for the first time in 2022. Our very successful 2022 Show definitely benefitted from being connected to a larger art event and we 're excited to be part of Art Week again in 2023! Participants' artwork will be on display for longer than in previous shows and we will have the opportunity to increase the excitement around our show by .presenting other art-related events such as demos or workshops.
With a longer show and additional activities, we NEED VOLUNTEERS at every stage of preparation and during the event. We are also looking for ideas for activities that we might sponsor at the Opera Hall during the show. This is a wonderful opportunity to work on a fun project with great people in the Foothill art community!
The Art Show is MLAA's main fundraiser. Proceeds from the show go to support the arts in Tuolumne County schools. If you're interested in volunteering, please call co-chair Linda Happel at 209 532 7240 or attend our January meeting .on Monday, January 16, at 1:00 pm in the Community Room at the county library at 480 Greenley Rd, Sonora.
