Rosalyn Demaree, Executive Director of Indiana Artisan Gallery, will offer an entire section in the gallery for the Carmel International Arts Festival (CIAF) Student Art Show on Sept. 28 and 29. For the third consecutive year, Indiana Artisans will sponsor two popular “People’s Choice Awards” ($500 each).
“The community is always so responsive to this event, and everyone enjoys the opportunity to vote for their favorite artwork entry,” Demaree said. “Hosting the student art show and participating in the Carmel International Arts Festival is a highlight of the year for us.”
Art Department Chairs Jenn Bubp at Carmel High School and Tasha Barger at University High School say they expect to submit over 100 art entries for the student scholarship competition. The original artwork will include various media forms including charcoal drawings, pencil sketches, pastels, oil paintings, watercolors, acrylics, photography, jewelry, sculptures, textiles, and more.
Both teachers agree that displaying their works in a known gallery helps students’ artistic talents to flourish and gives the local community a chance to interact.
CIAF will take place Sep. 28 and 29 in the Carmel Arts & Design District. Nearly 150 artists are expected this year, with various vendors and over 30,000 attendees. For more information, visit CarmelArtsFestival.org.
