Art @River Bend

Instructions for the Day are available on our homepage. In the meantime, here are the basics:

• Admission is FREE! Invite your friends, clients, neighbors, colleagues!  Help us spread the word. We'll be creating posters, postcards and sharing the event widely on social media and our website/e-newsletters.

You may set up on the day of the event as early as 10am.

• 8-foot rectangular tables (96" x 30") will be arranged under a HUGE elegant white tent. Bring your own linens or table drapes if you desire. Linens that measure 90" x 156" will reach the ground. We will provide chairs.
• If you prefer to provide your own white pop-up tent for more space, you are welcome to do that. There is plenty of space on the grounds of River Bend and several artists elect to be outside the HUGE tent.
• Our committee members will be on hand to greet you and answer questions.
• You will be able to drive up close to the tent but not right up to it.  No driving on the grass! We will show you where to park once you have unloaded.
• Bring any displays that you will need to show your work - again, we have tables. Open Studios has graciously offered the use of their 2’ x 6’ grid panels for a small donation. If you are interested in reserving one, please contact Cindy of Open Studios directly at: cindy@openstudios.org.
• There is no electricity available for your display.

Purchasing Artwork:

• We will take care of collecting all purchases and will issue your check for your 70% commission within a week after the event.
• We will provide you with receipt forms in triplicate. You keep one and give the other two copies to the customer who will bring them to the cashier station.  The customer will keep one and BCAA will get the other.
• Along with your check will be a list of artworks purchased, amount paid and contact info for your customers.

Expectations during the event:

• Keep your booth staffed for the duration of the event, through 6 pm.
• Be friendly!  Have a great time!
• All unsold work must be taken home at the conclusion of the event. 

What else:

• Dogs are not allowed at River Bend.
• We are recruiting volunteers to pitch in where needed:  before, during and after the event (if you know some helpful folks!)
• If you have any additional questions, please call 303-447-2422. You can also email crystal@bouldercountyarts.org.
