Winona Art Walk and Tour
Saturday | November 23, 2019 | 10am – 4pm

Winona area artists are invited to apply to participate in the 19th Annual Winona Art Walk and Tour. Submitted photos will be used to judge the artists on their creative and artistic pieces. The art must be created by the person participating in the event.

This event is a project of the River Arts Alliance. Applications should be submitted on-line and instructions for uploading two print-quality photos will be provided. The photos should be representative of the artist’s work. There is no requirement to include submitted works in the event. Selected photos will be included in the poster design and for promotional use, based on the discretion of the graphic designer.

IMPORTANT: The deadline to submit both the application and your photos is September 15, 2019.

Locations – A Group Site will be provided with a 10×10 space for each artist. Home Galleries may host up to three artists per location. Stores/Businesses that sell products created by local artists are also invited to participate.

A flyer/poster with a map of all locations will be printed for distribution. RAA will promote the event through a postcard mass mailing, the RAA website, the RAA and Winona Art Walk Facebook pages, press releases, and newspaper ads. The map will also be available on the RAA website (link to come).
