- You may apply as an individual artist or as a member of a group. ALL artists must apply individually by submitting their own images to be juried and paying their own application fees.
- Additionally, the "Made on the Coast" committee reserves the right to sponsor local artists in residence, demo-only artists, and non-profit coastal arts groups/individuals as part of our Made on the Coast local arts celebration.
- Being accepted for last year's festival does not guarantee acceptance for this year.
ARTWORK:
- All artwork sold at the festival must be designed and primarily created by the participants themselves. If any part of your product/process is reproduced by someone other than yourself, please describe your process and vendor in the online application Notes section. (e.g. gicée prints, vendor: Light Room, Berkeley).
- Experimental and mixed techniques are welcome.
- All participants must be present in the booth with their work.

Show Fee (only if accepted): $125 per booth
Application/Entry Fee: $25 per individual via PayPal
- ALL artists must submit the application fee at the time of application, whether applying as an individual or as part of a group.
- For groups, this means that if you are applying as a member of a group, each member of the group must apply individually, designate that you are planning to show as part of a group, upload 8 photos (one designated as the booth/display), & submit the application fee.) (The application fee is non- refundable.)
Show Fee (only if accepted): $125 per booth
- (Groups that are accepted pay just one combined show/booth fee, as well as the individual $25 application/entry fee(s).)
