Call for proposals for the Young Emerging Artists Market!



The Decatur Arts Alliance invites you to apply for booth space in the juried outdoor artists market area of our YEA! (Young Emerging Artists) event.
Returning for its third year, this wildly popular one-day arts event is for students in grades K-12 who want to develop and sell their own creative work. This event will be held on the square in downtown Decatur on Saturday, Sept. 26, 2015 from noon to 4 pm.
The Decatur Arts Alliance will set up a 20 x 20 ft. tent and provide a table and chairs for each artist/art group. The event will also feature a performance stage of bands or solo acts for students in grades K-12.
