The Faculty-Staff Exhibit is a great chance to see some works of art by your FOBA Conference workshop instructors and conference staff.
WHERE: It will be located on the first floor of the Richard Woodcock Education Center, just follow the signs once you enter the lobby.
WHEN: This exhibit will also be open to the public during the course of the conference. Exact hours will be posted here, but we plan to open the exhibit as check-in begins the afternoon of June 25th. The closing reception for the exhibit and conference will be on Saturday, June 29, 2024.
WHO CAN ENTER: All instructors, the FOBA Board members, and this years fellows can submit up to two entries into this years exhibit. Just fill out the entry form for each submission. If you are interested in the possibility of selling your submitted artwork, be sure to note that on the form, and include all your contact info at the end of your Artist Statement, so potential buyers can contact you directly during the conference. (FOBA won’t be handling any artwork sales, and won’t be charging any commission for exhibit sales.) Even if you are not planning to sell your artwork, we still need you to list the retail value when you fill out the form for insurance purposes.
