"My favorite was the booth by Garrett Kopka, a local artist whose vibrant tie-dye creations truly stood out. Garrett’s work is a brilliant explosion of color and creativity, from clothing to home décor. His pieces are not just tie-dye; they’re wearable art that captures the spirit of the day perfectly. If you didn’t get a chance to visit his booth, be sure to check out his work on Facebook."

☆ APPLICATIONS FOR GSR ARE OPEN!! ☆

is a juried weekend art festival after Thanksgiving every year. This year I joined the team for artist outreach!

GSR is my favorite art event of the year, no other fair cares as much about its artists. It's also typically my best sales event of the year!

We accept applications from artists of all disciplines-- apply at the GSR website under "artists." Accepted artists get free access to electricity, tables with covers, chairs, a lunch ticket with the caterers, and access to the artist's breakroom stocked with coffee, tea, and bagels. Artists may split a booth with a fellow artist.

If you have any questions, feel free to message/email me ([email protected]), or the GSR team at [email protected]

Tag any artist friends that may be interested!!
