So, for those of you who did not know - I’m a member of ULUPUH - The Croatian Association of Artist of Applied Arts. The ULUPUH organizes art exhibitions (local and international) and is active in other arts related areas - like: lectures, workshops, performances… etc.
In November and December, every year, in center of the City of Zagreb, like in many other European cities (probably US as well) there are Christmas shopping fairs on the streets. As a member of ULUPUH I am entitled to join the contest and apply for the shopping post in one of the streets. This means that, along with other members, I can submit the images of work that I intend to sell and the jury picks the best works. If they like your work, you are given the license to sell it on the Christmas fair between November 25th and December 31st.
Last year, I was selling my stuff there, met some great people and I had a loads of fun! That was the first time I ever did something like that and I went all crazy! (this is my selling point shown on the image)
This years contest was announced this Saturday November 10th and last day to apply is Friday November 16th. Time is running out. Until yesterday I thought I could do the same as last year, but I really really don’t have enough time to do that this year! (Among other stuff I’m running 4 blogs, sure I don’t have the time!)
Anyway, if you visit Zagreb in this time of the year, please visit my guys in city center in Petriceva and Margaretska street (not the other sale points where some guys are selling imported goods!!!) and buy something from them! They are making some really great works of art!
I’m happy
