CSA returns for a fourth season of locally produced and supported art. Employing the same model as Community Supported Agriculture, Community Supported Art supports local art, artists and collectors. Artists, who are selected by a jury, will be given a stipend to create 50 “shares” for the program by a set deadline. Shares can be purchased by the public for $300. Shareholders receive one box containing three works at three different pickup dates throughout the spring/summer season.
Minnesota artists of all disciplines are invited to submit proposals now through January 18th, 2012. Not all art comes in the form of a physical object. Along with visual artists, the CSA program encourages musicians, performing artists and writers to apply. Proposals must include samples of your current work, an artist’s statement and a one page artist’s resume.
An informational session about the CSA program will be held Thursday, December 22nd at 6 p.m. in the East Lake Library conference room (map). For more information, check out the CSA Call for Artists online.
