Call for Artists – 2013 ARTaste

Attention artists, musicians, actors, dancers and poets!

The Rockford Area Arts Commission (RAAC) is again hosting an event in conjunction with Taste of Rockford on Saturday, August 3, 2013. We are looking for artists interested in showcasing their talent throughout the end of July/early August 2013.

Merchants of downtown Rockford will showcase local artwork in their stores. In previous years, this event was known as ArtCapsule. This year, rather than holding a competition, our mission is to celebrate all the art central to the Rockford area.

We have renamed the event ARTaste of Rockford and will also be organizing live performances (music, theater, dance, poetry) at stations throughout the city from 10:00-2:00 on August 3, 2013.

Registration deadline is July 25, 2013.

Mail it or drop off at Rockford City Offices with your $10 registration fee:
