ArtWeek, a statewide art festival, will be in Franklin April 26-May 5. The FCC is looking for artists & businesses to participate.

Be part of ArtWeek 2019! Application deadline is Feb. 22! ArtWeek is a 10-day festival, April 26 - May 5, 2019, featuring unique and unexpected arts and cultural experiences that are participatory, interactive, or offer behind-the-scenes access to artists or the creative process.  Anyone can host a Franklin ArtWeek event...and while the venue has to be in Franklin, the hosting organization does not!   Successful events are often partnerships between artists and venues, such as a theater or dance performance in a restaurant, or an art workshop in a retail space. We are happy to help you find a partner for your ArtWeek event, which is a great way to promote your business to the community!   So let's talk money... ArtWeek events must be open to the public (though you can limit the number of attendees through ticket sales or other means), but they don't have to be free. All events must be under $50, and you keep all revenue. Want to host a free event? Well, that's certainly encouraged too!  There is no cost for you to participate in ArtWeek, and the ArtWeek organization will help promote your business and event for FREE! Learn More http://www.artweekma.org/ Ready to participate? If so, follow the link below to apply directly to ArtWeek for your event to be part of the fun! It's a short form and easy to fill out – we promise! The deadline is Feb. 22. Be sure to let us know if you're hosting an event, so that we can add you to our special ArtWeek Franklin printed calendar. We can't wait! Still have questions? Visit ArtWeek's FAQ's for more info, or email us.                           So where do you sign?? ArtWeek Application http://www.artweekma.org/get-involved-support/create-an-artweek-event-for-2019/
