CALL TO ARTISTS - DEADLINE: 9-15-2024

We invite you to apply to the Inverness Festival of the Arts...

NOVEMBER 2 & 3, 2024

10:00am - 4:00pm - Historic Downtown Area - Inverness, Florida

 
 

The Perfect Location...

Situated right in the center of some of Florida's most affluent communities, Inverness is an easy day trip for thousands of art buyers to whom you want to present your work. And with a 53 year track record, it has been a beacon of fine arts in the area and today the festival brings thousands to downtown Inverness. This two-day festival is a signature event for the city and brings fine artists to historic downtown for visitors to explore and shop. With a high percentage of returning artists each year, that alone speaks volumes for the show.

The Right Time of Year...

There are 365 days to pick from when the date for a festival is chosen. But when you can position the show right before two holidays known to be the best possible shopping dates... then it makes sense to pick those dates for the event. We want our exhibitors to have a GREAT show! That means lots of shoppers and plenty of sales. That's why we've not only chosen some of the best dates... we also incorporate an advertising campaign that takes advantage of virtually every media our area has to offer... newspaper, local lifestyle magazines, Spectrum online media, social media, billboards, and print media like posters and rack cards.
