Call for Artists: 2019 Oregon City Festival of the Arts

Oregon City Festival of the Arts logo

For the fourth year, the Three Rivers Artist Guild is presenting an arts, culture and heritage event known as the Oregon City Festival of the Arts (OCFOTA) on August 10 and 11, 2019. The Festival will again be held at the End of the Oregon Trail Interpretive & Visitor Information Center located at 1726 Washington Street, Oregon City, OR 97045. Hours of Operation are 10-5 each day.

As artists and community leaders, our mission is to encourage and support all forms of art in Oregon City and Clackamas County. The goal of the event is to promote visual and performing artists, the heritage community, tourism groups and local food and beverage vendors to create a unique community event. This event will be free to the public.

Your point of contact is Lynda Orzen at: ocfota@threeriversartistguild.com – 503-313-0024.

If selected, the booth fee is $125 for both days. This includes your booth space (10’ x 10’) and marketing for the Oregon City Festival of the Arts.

Please note: This is an outdoor event on the grass. Although we make every effort to find the most level and suitable booth spaces, not all locations are perfectly flat. Also, there is no power available for the booths.

No more than two artists may share a booth and art must be compatible. Both must be juried in and send in separate applications and jury fees. You will share the booth fee of $125.

  • April 15, 2019: jury fee and application due date.
  • May 1, 2019: Jury results sent to artists.
  • June 30, 2019: $125 booth payments due.
