Greenbelt Seeks New Artists for 31st Year of Art in the Barn

Posted

Artists - painters, sculptors, potters, photographers, jewelry makers and more - are invited to submit their work to be considered for Greenbelt’s 31st annual “Art in the Barn” exhibition and sale. 

This year, the show will run for 2 days: Friday, June 12th and Saturday, June 13th and will take place as it does every year at Greenbelt’s Cox Reservation and headquarters in Essex.

The show has a well-earned reputation as one of the best art exhibits on the North Shore, attracting several thousand visitors each year. It is a fundraiser to support Greenbelt’s land conservation work. Greenbelt and the artist each receive 50 percent of the sale price.

“Art in the Barn” is a juried show.  To be considered, artists must submit five digital images and their jury form by April 5, 2020.  Artists who have not exhibited before are chosen based on their work as represented by submitted materials, and as space permits.

Painters may offer three framed works for sale, depending on size.  Pottery, ceramics, jewelry, etc. are displayed on 5-feet by 30-inch tables.  Large sculptures are displayed on the beautiful grounds outside.
