The Mountain Brook Art Association will hold its 33rd annual Spring Art Festival on April 5 from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. at the Crestline Elementary sports field.
The goal of the event is to highlight members of the Mountain Brook Art Association’s work, to raise awareness of buying local art and to create a venue for the work to be sold. Around 70 artists, including Mountain Brook’s Vicki Denaburg, Barclay Gresham, Thomas Andrew, Lynn Briggs and Mary Mellen, will attend.
There will also be live jazz music by Mountain Brook High School students, food vendors including Iz Café, and a floral competition sponsored by Norton’s Florist.
Member volunteers in the hospitality tent may also hang a few pieces of their work to sell, providing a way the entire membership can participate.
To emphasize the locality of membership, rules of the club allow only people who live in a 25-mile radius from Mountain Brook City Hall.
Each artist will have his or her own 10-foot by 10-foot tent to fill with his or her artwork with prices of their choosing.
All artwork showcased is two-dimensional and may be hung on a wall. Artwork ranges in size from miniature pieces to extra-large canvases. Visa, MasterCard, checks and cash will be accepted.
If there is rain, the event will be held April 6 from noon-5 p.m.
