KNWR seeks local artists

August 22, 2012
An Art Show and Sale will be held at Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge on October 6, 2012. The free event is being organized by the Friends of Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge group, and will feature art, food vendors, and music.

The event will allow residents to explore the beauty of KNWR and purchase art.

Talented local artists are invited to apply for 10’x10’ booth spaces. Art can be nearly any medium, as long as it somehow pertains to the theme of nature.

Applications for artists can be found on the Friend’s group website: Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge’s website: www.friendsofkootenainationalwildliferefuge.org.

All submissions will be juried by a panel of local art professionals.

Applications can be either hand-delivered or postmarked by Friday, September 7, and must include a disc of images and a $5 application fee to Friends of Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge, Inc. c/o Emily Carpenter, 287 Westside Road, Bonners Ferry, ID 83805.
