The Springfield Regional Arts Council is pleased to announce the 2026 Art Festival Workshop! Led by local artist Linda Passeri, this workshop will cover everything from the application process to the ideal booth setup and everything in between – anything an artist interested in applying for upcoming festivals or fairs needs to know! This year, we are excited to split the workshop into two parts. You can sign up for one part or for both as different material will be covered in both sections.
The first session for the workshop will be on Thursday, October 8, 2026, from 5:30-7:30 pm at The Creamery Arts Center. This will cover general information relating to art fairs & festivals in addition to how to apply to art fairs and festivals.
The second session will be on Saturday, October 10, 2026, from 2-4 pm at The Creamery Arts Center. This will cover how to photograph your artwork, how to go about setting up a display, and how to prepare for an art fair and festival after you’ve been accepted.
Seating will be limited. To reserve your spot for one or both parts of the workshop, please email [email protected] prior to October 7. Please specify which workshop session, or both if you want to attend both, you want to attend. The workshops will take place at The Creamery Arts Center at 411 N. Sherman Parkway. This workshop is free for Springfield Regional Arts Council Members and only $20 for Non- Members.
