Category: Annual Holiday Show

by Lynda Orzen, Holiday Show Coordinator

I am going to claim the 2021 Holiday Show a success. We didn’t have as many artists participating but shoppers still had a huge variety of artwork to choose from. I know I did a lot of shopping during the weekend! Shoppers were so happy to be able to able to shop in person-finally! Heard lots of comments about the wealth of artwork and the organization of the event.

Tried to take some photos of the event but I’m definitely not a photographer. Unfortunately our photographer, Ingrid Aubry was recuperating from a broken hip. Happy to say, she is recuperating quite well!

Want to thank volunteers and organizers for pitching in to make this a wonderful event!

Happy New Years Artists and a New Year of creating art!

Sorry. This form is no longer available.

Now that we have the fantastic Festival of the Arts behind us, it’s time to look to our future events. The Holiday Show is happening this year. Set up will be on Friday, December 3 and show days on December 4 and 5. We are thinking of changing the times this year to 9 till 4 on Saturday and 10 till 4 on Sunday.

This show is only for members of the guild that have been juried in to either the gallery or another guild event. There will be 39 booths currently available: 35, 6 ft by 8 ft spaces and 3, 24 inches by 12 feet spaces. Cost will be $60 for a full space and $40 for partial.

The application will be in the September 15, 2021 newsletter.

The Pioneer Center is reserved for the 2021 Holiday Show. There will be a Friday, December 3 set up with the show running December 4 and 5. This show is open to TRAG members only! As in past years, 37 6X8 ft ($60) spaces and 3 3X12 ($40) ft spaces. This show is one of the Premier Holiday art events in Oregon City. I believe it will be our 15th!

A lot still depends on the overall safety in our community at that time. Unfortunately, there is no crystal ball that will tell us the future. May have to take extra precautions which will be worked out before the event. More information in September. Would like to form a small committee to help organize the event

The annual Holiday show is still on for December. The dates will be December 4 for set up and 5 and 6 for the show. The event may need to be set up differently for social distancing purposes. Once we get later in the year, we will have a better idea of what the event will look like.
