Artists from 10 states, including as far away as Nevada, will come together Oct. 6 at the Bluff Park Community Center for the 55th Annual Bluff Park Art Show.
The free event, hosted each year by the Bluff Park Art Association, will feature about 150 artists, including 38 first-time participants.
“We’re very excited to have several new artists participating in this year’s show,” said association President Julie Preskitt. “We think that keeps our show diverse and relevant. There will be something for everyone, from the casual art lover to the serious collector.”
Artists’ works on display will cover a variety of mediums, including clay, glass, jewelry, metalworking, painting, photography and printmaking. Proceeds from the event will help the association promote the arts in the greater Birmingham area.
From 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., booths will be stationed in front of the community center at 517 Cloudland Drive in Hoover along with music, food vendors and a variety of hands-on activities for children ages 3 to 8.
Free parking and shuttle buses will be available at Bluff Park United Methodist Church, Shades Mountain Independent Church, Bluff Park Village Shopping Center and Shades Crest Baptist Church.
