Where?
Town Hall Square is the lawn in front of Falmouth Town Hall, down to Main Street. On inclement days, ArtMarket will be in the Odd Fellows Hall which is the tall white building with the four white columns, just to the left of Town Hall. Its address is 1 Chancery Lane.
Falmouth Artists who wish to join us?
Email martket@verizon.net.
We would like to spotlight the many Falmouth schools alumni who are out in the world studying and working in the arts creating images with paint, print, photography or video; or objects with metal, clay, glass, wood or fiber; or performing dance, music, theater, circus; or writing novels, poems, or news articles, and designing ads, household products or houses.
If you are a parent or grandparent or teacher of such a person, please tell them about the ArtMarket and the invitation to stand with Falmouth's arts community. This is a serious request because you are our only way of getting in touch with these artists. Pass along our invitation to show and/or sell at ArtMarket while they're here visiting. You or they should send an email to martket@verizon.net
The "fee structure" is simple: 20% of what you sell. If you don't sell anything, if you are just there to show your work or to publicize your upcoming event or organization, you don't pay anything.
