Dallas School of Music Fall Art Festival
August 29th, 2004
Remember, the Dallas School of Music’s Fall Art Festival begins Saturday, September 11. They will be installing the art September 7-10 and the work will hang for two full months. So, select 1 or more pieces that you will not need available until after November 14.
This will be a great opportunity for our artists’ work to be seen by a large group of people. Artwork and commissions do sell during the festival. Below is an update from Eugene Cantera at the Dallas School of Music. If you are interested in showing, please email me the information he is asking for at the bottom of his update.
The posters have been designed and printed and will be showing up in the Carrollton/ Plano area this next week. I hope you get to see them, Becky has done a great job in their design.
We had a little press through Nancy Churnin’s blurb in the Dallas Morning News yesterday about Dan Hale and Matthew LaBrot. There will be another round of releases going out next week to local papers, radio and TV. I am still working with channel 8 to get a crew out here on Friday the 10th to cover our installation.
The Freddie Jones group will be performing to open the festival at 3 PM. Freddie is a great jazz trumpeter and longtime friend of DSM. There will be one other group playing during the event as well as DSM faculty performances later in the afternoon. Borders will also be on hand with books and music for sale.
Julio Suarez of KidArt has planned an interactive mural that will depict people listening to and reacting to music and art. We are hopeful that once completed, the piece can be framed and hung on the back wall of the stage in our recital hall.
REMEMBER: We will be accepting artwork from Tuesday September 7 through Friday the 10th. We will create the cards for each piece but would like to have the following information e-mailed in advance if possible:
Artist name, brief bio and contact numberPiece titles, media and prices if applicable
We are looking forward to a nice event - stay tuned for updates!
