• How can Artists become involved in ArtWorks Foundation shows? We accept applications for the majority of our shows via Zapplication.org.  Applications are reviewed by an independent jury of artists, collectors, and show directors from across the US; artists’ scores are evaluated on the basis of design and execution: talent, skill and presentation are considered. Successful applicants receive invitations to participate. Involvement in our Holiday Artists’ Market, WinterArts - on the other hand - is by invitation only.

We love  volunteers; you can become involved in helping to work with us at our events to: set up & remove equipment; assist participating artists; or help generate          public awareness.
