Calling all artists!

Capital Arts has some exciting opportunities for you to share your artistic talents with the Jefferson City community and its visitors. Capital Arts Gallery and Studio is truly beautiful! Artists from the surrounding area now have an opportunity to exhibit, sell their work, and teach their trade. We would like to extend an opportunity for you to exhibit with us where your work will be spotlighted and admired.

The Capital Jazzfest & Street Art Fair September 17 & 18, 2010 Memorial Park
This Jefferson City tradition becomes more popular each year. Friday will be an opportunity for school groups to show their creativity on the sidewalks; that evening, beginning at 5:30 p.m., there will be Beer, Blues and BBQ. Come mellow out to the lulling sounds of the blues. Day two consists of live jazz and live art as the sidewalks are lined with a diverse group of amateur and professional artists of all ages, chalking it up for top honors and prizes. Whether recreating a well known piece of art or making an original, participants make the concrete come alive. One need not be an artist to join in; all are encouraged to unleash their creativity in this day long event.

In addition, artist tents full of wares are dispersed throughout the park.
