HOW IS THE FESTIVAL GOING TO WORK THIS YEAR?

Artists will be opening their studios to welcome attendees once again and we will have an assortment of preview programming online, such as our Moving Art and Talking Art series, as well as Preview Exhibits.

WHAT ARE YOUR SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR THE FESTIVAL?

As we continue to navigate life with COVID, we strongly encourage attendees to be up to date on their COVID vaccinations, practice hand hygiene, and stay home if sick. While masks are no longer required in indoor public spaces, artists and studio buildings can choose to require masks on their premises. We kindly ask that attendees follow all respective artists/ studio safety guidelines (if any) and be respectful and kind as you consider others’ situations and comfort levels.

You can find our Operational & Safety Guidelines for attendees for attendees here.
