The artwork will include all types of mediums that are presented anonymously, with the work signed by the artist on the back of the piece. At the time of purchase, the artist’s name will be revealed to the buyer. Artists may submit up to three artworks. Pass the word to all of your artist friends around Oregon and around the world!

First Annual Oregon Crafted
Sampler Art Show

Saturday, November 14, 10am-6pm
Sunday, November 15, 10am-5pm
Lane Country Fairgrounds Auditorium

Oregon Art was on display at the first annual Oregon Crafted Sampler Show and boy, did it look good. At least 1800 art lovers strolled the aisles, admiring and purchasing the stunning art on display. Many commented on the variety and quality of art as refreshing. Said one visitor, "I haven't seen a show with this degree of quality in town in a long time." Gallery representatives agreed. They were quite pleased with the quality of art and the convenience of having so many accomplished artists in one show. A number of our artists were commissioned to show their art in galleries around the state. Most artists experienced good sales too making the show an overall success. Artists and shoppers alike asked Oregon Crafted to host another show next year, some wanting us to host two a year. We'll get to work on next year's show very soon. Meanwhile, look for Oregon Crafted's new gallery store at 228 East 11th Avenue to open early 2010. A grand opening featuring a Six by Six Show of pieces by accomplished artists, amateurs, and community art lovers will be held during the First Friday Art Walk in February 2010. The 6x6 Show will run through March 5th.
