FRAA seeks artist entries for upcoming festival The Florence Regional Arts Alliance (FRAA) is inviting artists to participate in the inaugural Florence Fest, to be held at the Florence Events Center March 31 and April 1. “This unique event, which will feature two days of jazz, art and wine, will be high- lighted by talented jazz musi- cians and outstanding wine from some of the best winer- ies in the Willamette Valley,” said Harlen Springer of FRAA. “The juried art section of the event will provide max- imum exposure for creative artist’s work and prize money will be awarded.” Selection for the exhibit will be made by Robert Canaga, an accomplished painter, photographer and printmaker. He has been the curator for numerous exhibitions throughout the Northwest, including the Gallery at the Watershed, PeaceHealth Headquarters, OPUS6IX and the Coos Art Museum. A former gallery owner, Canaga also has exhibited in over 30 selected shows, most recently at a three-month show in the State Capitol Building. His work currently appears in 14 public and private col- lections. “This is an opportunity to be part of a very special event,” said Springer. Cash prizes will also be awarded and will be selected by an awards committee of three local artists and gallery owners: SK Lindsey (Kenneth B. Gallery), Marianne Brisbane, (Vardanian Gallery) and Steve Dennis (Earthworks Gallery). First place receives $1,000, second place $500 and third place will receive $250.
