FAQ’s on Applying to Shows

By Amdur Productions / Blog, Tips

What are the Jurors Looking for?

  • Cohesive body of work, originality, and a point of view.

What are My Chances of Getting Into a Festival?

  • Every year there are a new panel of judges and a new group of artists applying for the show. The only artists that are invited back are the award winners. There’s always a new opportunity to be accepted into the festivals every year!

What if I Don’t have a Booth Image?

  • If you don’t have a booth image, you can create a mock set up of your art! For 2D artists, you can hang your artwork where two walls meet in your home or gallery as you would hang your work at an art festival. For 3D artists, you can use skirted tables or pedestals to create a mock set up.

What If I Don’t Have a Tent?

  • If you don’t have a tent, you can rent one through us! We coordinate tent rentals with a professional tent company that sets up the tent with weights and cover walls and they take the tent down for you at the end of the festival. The fee for this is $300 for a regular 10×10 tent for the show weekend.

What Makes Amdur Productions Art Festivals Special?

  • Professionalism: Every staff member is knowledgeable in event planning and coordinating and loves what they do
  • Extensive and Professional Marketing and Advertising
  • Real People: Staff members are always present and readily available to help the artists
  • Top Rated and Longstanding Festivals
  • Organization: Every detail in our festivals, from planning to production is thought out, reviewed, analyzed and executed to make the best art festival experience for all

Who Selects the Artists?

This year, we have a panel of jurors for each art festival. Jurors go through all of the images and assign them a point value. Then the scores are totaled and then artists are ranked according to their scores.

Special Extra Tip: No detail is too small! When it comes to submitting jury images and a display image, the details matter. Stay away from someone in your booth shot, a distracting background, or poor lighting because it will effect your overall score.
