The 91st Annual Mid Summer Show August 7th - 10th, 2008 It's a beloved summer tradition so circle your calendar today! August 7 through August 10 marks the 91st Annual Midsummer Art Show at The Ellison Center for the Arts and is free for all. The four-day member show will include Gallery Tours, a Member Artists Studio Sale, Children’s workshops and events including our Famous Decorated Bike Parade! The Benefit Opening Reception on Friday evening, August 8 will include an exciting Silent Auction featuring special items created by popular local artists and craftsmen, live music, great food and friends, It promises to be a festive time. We’ll be scheduling children’s art workshops throughout the summer (Schedule will be available via mailings, emails and on our website in May) helping young artists create work to hang in the Young Artists exhibition for children up to age 18, and to create unique decorations to adorn their bicycles in our Annual Decorated Bike Parade. Member artists are invited to sell their artwork at our annual Member Artists Studio Sale during the Midsummer Show. This is a wonderful opportunity to simplify (clean out) your studio and generate some sales! Artists must be current 2008- 2009 members of the Duxbury Art Association. Registration and art drop off is Sunday and Monday, August 3 & 4, 2008. All two dimensional artwork should be matted, shrink wrapped (if appropriate for the medium) and labeled with artist's name, selling price and item number. All three dimensional work should be labeled with artist's name, selling price and item number. We require that each artist bring their own displays (wrapped boxes, racks and easels, etc.). Please note that the DAA retains a 30% commission on all work sold. The Member Artists Studio Sale is one of the highlights of the Midsummer Show and continues to expand every year. We welcome artists, art enthusiasts, gift buyers and patrons to benefit from this unique event. See our website and our prospectus letter mailed in May for complete registration rules.
