Important Note About Third FridayArtscrawl Events

January 13, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Greetings, artists, friends of the factory, n’ other cool folks!

Just a quick note to let everyone know we’ve canceled our Third Friday Artscrawl event. We’re in the process of making the Factory show lineup an even more exciting experience, and we’ve decided to put the Third Friday events on hold for now.

This does NOT affect special shows that might happen to occur on Third Friday (specially scheduled events). It just affects the regular Artscrawl Third Friday events. :-)

Note: Our First Friday event schedule has not changed! Just the Third Friday event schedule has.

RESOLUTIONS Art Show – Call For Artists

December 18, 2007 · 186 Comments

What does the term “resolutions” mean to you? Is it positive? Negative? How does the word itself make you react. What about conceptually?

In January, the Factory on 5th is hosting a themed show called RESOLUTIONS.

If you’d like to participate, you’ll need to paint, sketch, collage, build, or otherwise create an entry (or entries) which explore the theme. You may submit work in any medium. There are no rules about interpretation, either. Just do whatever feels right for the theme.

 When:
January 4th, 2008 (First Friday)
January 18th, 2008 (Third Friday)

Where:
At the Factory on 5th Art Space
17155th St. NW
(between Aspen and Haines)

If you’d like to create something based on January’s theme, please contact Robert Redus and let him know you’ll be participating: 505-261-3752

The show fee is $28.00, plus 20% commission.
