2011 CLA Art Fair
The CLA Art Fair is one of the CLA Student Board’s longest running events, giving talented students the opportunity to display their artistic ability to the University of Minnesota. Every year more than 100 entries are submitted to compete for cash prizes.
Fellow students will be able to choose which piece they like the best within different categories of Art. The categories include 2D (things like drawings and paintings), 3D (which includes ceramics and sculptures), and reproducibles (photographs or things that can be reproduced). We will also have the Dean of CLA, a representative from the Weisman Art Museum and local professional artists come to decide their favorite piece and hand out awards.
The event will take place on Tuesday, Nov. 29, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Wednesday, Nov. 30 beginning at 9 a.m. An awards ceremony to honor winners will begin at 2 p.m. and this will conclude the event.
This year, we are looking for any acoustic and/or Acapella groups that would be interested in entertaining the guests and artists at the Art Fair. We will be holding auditions on November 2 from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. in Coffman 301!
If you are interested in submitting your work into the 2011 CLA Art Fair, or auditioning to be the entertainment, or if you have any questions please contact either Heather Meyer (meye1476@umn.edu) or Hannah Erickson (eric2750@umn.edu).
