Rise Up! Crafts Call

Call to Artists, Crafters, and Jewelers:

ARTSomerville and the Somerville Arts Council are seeking donations of crafts inspired by New Orleans and Mardi Gras as part of "Rise Up!", a month-long series of events in February 2005 to benefit artists in New Orleans. 100% of proceeds from sales will go to benefit the New Orleans Arts Council. Crafts may include beaded necklaces, shrines, Mardi Gras tokens, and other handmade goods related to the theme. Donations of small quantities of crafts are welcome (eg. single necklaces).

To participate, please contact:
