Art in Action Art Show
The Weatherford Chamber of Commerce is hosting an art show on Saturday, Sept. 19 from
9:00-4:00 at the Weatherford Farmer’s Market. I’ve attached the application and would like to have students from ACU to participate. “Art in Action” is having the artists actually doing their artwork throughout the day. This allows the public to see an artist in action. Participants may sell their works but it isn’t required.
If you have any questions, please contact-
