Submissions

If you have a submission for the Show, you can bring your artwork to the Stake Center between 1pm-4pm on the 22nd.  If that time does not work for you, you can also bring it to my house - 377 Harvest Moon Drive - any time on the 21st.  We want to make sure everything is transported and stored safely.

Also, we need the wording for the note card that will be displayed with your art.  It should be a short description of how your piece portrays how you feel the Savior's love.  It can be something as simple as "I feel my Savior's love when..."  Please email this to me at stakeartscommittee@yahoo.com or call me at (801) 592-5587.

If you have a submission, but haven't signed up yet, you can still sign up!  Scroll down to the post below for what information we need.  Please also include the wording for your note card.

Please let me know if you have any questions!  Everything is really coming together for an awesome Art Show!  Thank you!

Update!

We hope you've all got your creative juices flowing!  Here's a couple updates:

Sign-up!
We've added a sign-up sheet to the right that can be downloaded.  You can email your submission to stakeartscommittee@yahoo.com, or you may call me, Stacy Taylor, at (801) 592-5587.  We want to know ASAP so we know what to plan for!

Date Change
The date of the Art Show will be only on Friday, April 22nd, from 5-9 pm.  Another exciting aspect of the Art Show is that is correlates with the Stake Choir Program at the Stake Center that same night!  What an amazing, spiritual night to celebrate our Savior!  Come for one and stay to enjoy the other!

Additional Questions
Is there a size limit?  As far as size goes, anything that can be displayed and is themed around our Savior's love is acceptable.  If you have something particularly large, please let us know upon submission.

Is there a submission limit?  If you would like to submit more than one entry, please let us know.  We want to have a variety of art and allow everyone in the Stake the opportunity to participate.

Welcome, members of the Saratoga Springs North Stake!  We are excited to invite you to participate in our first ever Stake Art Show.  This blog is your source for any info you might need on the art show.  Please feel free to post any questions you might have, and we will answer them as quickly as possible.  Soon we'll have the sign-up sheet here to download as well.
