Are you an artist? An art lover? Are you looking for that painting for over the fireplace, the perfect piece of jewelry for your loved one, or perhaps that sculpture for that empty space in the corner? Or maybe you just like looking at interesting and beautiful things.

This year the Clarksville Fine Arts Festival will be Saturday, May 22, 2010, from 9:AM to 4:PM in Clarksville, Texas. This is our third year and in an effort to become established as a premier event in the North-East Texas region, the festival is once again free to artists exhibiting their own artwork. It is open to all Fine Artists (those doing original paintings, sculptures, pottery, photography, & personally handmade jewelry) and also Original Authors (published books).

The Festival is an outdoor event held on the grass on the Historic City Square. In addition to the artist exhibits we have live music performances in the center of the Square during the event.

Artists, to request a free 10’ x 10’ space, make your reservation here. Once again we will present a $200.00 cash prize for the “Best in Show” to one artist.

New and exciting for this year!
There will be live wood turning demonstrations by Henry Oertel
