Can I pick my location? Maybe… the organizers are juggling many requests from artists, merchants, bylaw and the community (space requirements, type of art, business preferences, city by laws and cooperation of landlords also must be balanced). Be patient we will do our best to accommodate all requests. Think outside the box. Too many people think the 105 St – 103 St is the core but in fact Art Walk artists are having success between 108 – 106 st and certainly very affordable spots will be found across the east side of tracks this year. It is all about promotion and word of mouth so help us help you. Can I register on line? Due to the complexities of the registration process we are no longer able to register online. 1. Artists can register in person at The Paint Spot 10032 81 Avenue or over the phone local 780 432 0240 or toll free 1 800 363 0546. 2. Download the registration form and send us images we will call you back for a credit card or ask you to mail a cheque. However you are not officially registered until we receive payment. Can I register and pay later? You are assigned a number and location only after you have paid. Can I register a friend? If you have the money and their images, you can pay and register for them but they must still come in and sign their waiver and pick up their ID badge. Can I share a table? No. All artists that show work must pay the fee. We can try to place you close to each other. Can I bring a tent? Yes! Tents and grid wall are welcome but are limited to areas that allow bigger displays without blocking the store fronts. Please let us know if you are planning a large or tall exhibition. Do you provide tables and tents? Sorry, the artists must provide everything including but not limited to tables, chairs, grid wall, easels etc. Is there storage over-night? No, Art Walk artists must set up and take down everyday. What is the registration money used for? This small registration fee is used to pay for the website creation and maintenance; design and production of event signage, event booklet, media kits, poster, postcards and more. Any money left is used for advertising and publicity. Do I have to be there everyday? Yes, artists are expected to be on sight Friday, Saturday and Sunday 10 am – 5 pm. (Many artists arrive earlier and some stay later). Can someone else watch my booth while I am at work? Normally we do not allow agents to sell work that is not theirs but we can allow friends and family to work for you if you are not there. Remember, this event is about showing work-in-progress too. It is in your best interest to be on site as much as possible. How do I handle visa, mastercard and cheques? Research the closest bank machines to your Art Walk location so you are able direct patrons to the money machines.
