Artists needed

Artists are needed for the Stafford Arts Commission’s sixth annual Fine Arts Festival, “Autumn in the Park,” which will take place on Oct. 1 at Hyde Park in Stafford Springs.
The Commission invites local and regional artists and full-time art students to submit samples of their work for juried selection by a panel of art professionals. The wide range of media categories includes: painting, sculpture, photography, drawing, glass, ceramics, wood, metal, fiber and jewelry.
The application fee of $35 ($20 for full-time students) is still one of the most moderate for any comparable festival in the New England region.
Artists interested in participating at “Autumn in the Park” can visit the Commission’s website at www.staffordct.org for application information and entry forms.
Application deadline is Aug. 31.
