Dear Fellow Artists and Friends of Agonist Gallery,
Great egret, Ardea alba, with breeding plumage and wings beating, flying over a swamp in St. Augustine, Florida in springtime, against a deep blue sky.
On Sunday, March 24, Agonist Gallery will host our Early Spring Artists Market.
All area visual artists are invited to bring 1-3 pieces for display in the gallery for the day (more if there’s room)- 11 am to 4 pm. There are no commissions on sales, and the price to exhibit is only $10 at the door. There will be no charge for our visitors, and there is ample parking.
Bring some new work to share and test out. Our Artists Markets are a place for artists to show new work without great expense or time commitment. Accepted work includes photography, painting, drawing, and sculpture. Work will be hung on display panels normally used for outdoor art fairs.
There will be time for set-up between 10:30 am and 11 am. “At the Dam Restaurant” next door is open to 1 pm. Hope to see you there!
Please contact me if you have any questions.
Thanks! Jeff
