Fall 2010 Affaire In The Gardens Art Show - Call to Artists

They say stocks, employment and productivity are all down.  But there is an up note; the Beverly Hills Affaire In The Gardens Art Show attracted a record number of applicants and record crowds at our most recent show, and we plan to do so again this fall.

The City of Beverly Hills is seeking artists for the Fall 2010 Affaire In The Gardens Art Show, in the following categories:

Painting, Sculpture, Photography, Drawing and Printmaking, Ceramics and Glass, Digital Art, and Mixed Media

The show has taken place for over thirty-six years along four blocks of historic Beverly Gardens Parkway, between Rodeo and Rexford Drives, in the center of Beverly Hills.  Artists from around the nation exhibit alongside local Los Angeles talent.  As many as 50,000 visitors attend throughout the weekend, and Southern California art dealers regularly drop by to seek out new art and artists.  Celebrities are often spotted as well, strolling through the gardens and striking art bargains.

This free, drop-in event, includes an outdoor dining quarter, a wine garden, live jazz, classical and contemporary music, and many art demonstrations.  A number of Beverly Hills restaurants and gourmet food trucks, which are of course all the rage in Southern California, provide the food options.  However, the emphasis of the show is on the finest art available in an outdoor fair setting.
