Mayfest Seeks Artists

Tulsa International Mayfest is currently accepting applications from visual and performing artists for the 2011 festival to be held May 19-22 in downtown Tulsa.  

Mayfest features approximately 100 fine visual artists and 20 craftspeople during this four-day Tulsa tradition.  Entries are professionally judged according to strict guidelines through a blind jury process.  Many artists who have participated over the last several years have seen record sales and because of that, the competition for booth space at Tulsa International Mayfest is increasing.

To apply, please visit www.tulsamayfest.org or www.zapplication.org by January 28, 2011. The application fee is $35.  If you have any questions or need additional information, please email the Visual Artist Chair at vachair@tulsamayfest.org.

Mayfest showcases over 75 performers on three outdoor stages each year.  Musicians have the opportunity to receive exposure and recognition from over 350,000 attendees during the four-day festival.   

To apply, please visit www.tulsamayfest.org or www.sonicbids.com, where bands create an electronic press kit.  Applications are due by January 28th and there is a $10 application fee.  

For questions regarding the application process, please email comments@tulsamayfest.org or call the Mayfest office at 918.582.6435.
