Press release:

“Barns of Madison County” Exhibit at the Arts Council in May
Invitation to Artists to submit work for the Exhibit

As part of May Barn Month, Madison County Arts Center will be hosting a second annual exhibit of “The Barns of Madison County” — paintings, photographs and drawings and any other type of media. It will be a mix of work from both professionals and amateurs. This will be an exhibit which will allow artists to both display and sell their work. A 30% commission will go to the Arts Council for any sales.

If you would like to submit your work, please contact Erich Hubner at MCAC 828 649-1301 or madcoarts@gmail.com if you have any questions. If you respond to this email, we will just forward it to the Arts Council since they have the answers for you. Also, if you know someone else who might like to participate, please pass this email on to that person.

The exhibit will have an opening reception on Friday, May 5 beginning at 6 p.m. hosted by the Arts Council with free refreshments. You are invited to be there to mix with attendees who might have questions about your work. And, the works will be on display through the month.

Here’s what to do:
Submit your work to the Arts Council at 90 S. Main Street in Marshall by Friday, April 28. Hours are Monday thru Friday 10am to 4pm
You may provide several pieces — Erich reserves the right not to display all depending on the space limitations.
Photos or prints must be in plastic sleeves if not framed.
Framed pieces should have a wire for hanging.
Matting of unframed pieces is encouraged.
Please provide your name, the name of the work, the price or NFS if you are just displaying and not selling.

Thank you from your friends at the Appalachian Barn Alliance!!
