Art Show


Have you been interested in showing/selling your art but an Artist Alley table isn't the right fit for you? Consider entering in our Art Show, part of CONsole Room since 2019!

***The guidelines below are from our 2023 show, for reference. We are currently looking for volunteers interested in running the Art Show for 2024. Please reach out if you are interested or want to know more!***


LIABILITY/INSURANCE

Artists should make their own arrangements for insurance if desired. Artists and/or their agent agree to “protect, keep, and save CONsole Room forever harmless” from damages or charges imposed for violations of law, ordinance, or terms outlined in these guidelines.
