Art Market

A.L.P.A.C.A. to Host Art Market Saturday


The Athens Local Professional Artists and Craftsmen Association (A.L.P.A.C.A) will host its next outdoor Art Market on Saturday, June 18.

Association members will offer local art and crafts for sale from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Market on State, in conjunction with the Athens Farmers Market. Vendors will feature items such as glasswork, jewelry, ceramics, woodwork, fiber arts, crafts and children's clothing.

The Art Markets will be held on the third Saturday of the month through September: July 16, Aug. 20 and Sept. 17. The Market on State is located at 1002 E. State St., Athens, Ohio.

A.L.P.A.C.A. formed in 2008 to promote and support local artists. The group sponsors various local exhibits, shows and special events throughout the year, and provides business information and networking for area craftsmen.

http://www.foothillsmusic.org/contact_us.html

This will be their biggest year yet. Once again you do not have to be a member of ALPACA for this show although ALPACA will jury each non-ALPACA artist's work. We are keeping the price at $20. This is a show that would cost $60 and up anywhere else.
Don't be fooled by the low cost.
