LCAA Booth at the Lancaster Fine Art & Craft Show

The LCAA is giving members the chance to exhibit their work in our “Special LCAA Booth" at our Lancaster Fine Art & Craft Show on Oct. 12. Many of our members don't have enough work to have their own booth, so we are having an exhibit of members' work in our LCAA Booth. We want to showcase our talented members (both professional & non-professional) to the public and show them what a great organization we have here at the LCAA!

Requirements to Enter -
Current LCAA members may enter 1-4 pieces, framed (work on canvas with finished edges is OK) and wired for hanging.
Artwork (2D) must be 26" or less in any direction including frame. (3D) artwork must be 22" or less in any direction.
Artwork must be for sale. The LCAA will take their usual 30% commission and handle the sales.
Awards will be given - also a People's Choice Award.
Participating artists do not need to be present during the show (however we are looking for volunteers to help).

Entry Fee: $20 per piece, or $45 for 4 pieces.
Drop Off: At the LCAA - Oct. 3, 4, 5 (11am-4pm) & Oct. 6 (1-4pm) or at the Kreider Building at the Solanco Fairgrounds, Quarryville on Fri. Oct. 11, 5-7pm. We recommend wrapping or boxing work for transport.
