SHOWS INFO:
In 2019 we began having our 3 day Art Shows & Sales. Thursday, Friday & Saturday. Really Thursday is our day to take artwork and we call it the Intake Day We get all the artwork in and art hung and ready. By Friday morning we have our show ready for the judge to come in and find all the best and beautiful artwork in the bunch. The show ready for the public is usually Friday later in the day. We use to do the everything in two days. We have made adjustments and now it is much more smooth. We have such wonder members that all come and help. Some have been doing it for a very long time. It shows our dedication to the Tomball Art League Group. Thank you all ! We could not do it without you!
Since the first record I have, Fall Show 2003 we have had a total of 34 shows.
SHOWS & SALES:
In 2019 we added Art Selling to our shows. You must be a member of TAL to sell your artwork. Running within the show we have a separate area you can place your art for sale. You bring in 3 pieces at a time, and sell those and bring 3 more.
Giving you 3 days not to just showcase your amazing talent, but maybe make some money as well.
Tip: You can always put your artwork in the show for sale as well! Or dont want to sell it you don't have too!
Check the Shows - Forms webpage, we will let you know when and where and how.
