Hello Everyone!
You’re receiving this invitation because we would like to invite artists from our broader creative community the opportunity to participate in the HARK! Holiday Show & Sale along with our talented resident artists at KALEID Gallery!
This is an annual highlight for many of our collectors and art patrons. It gives them hundreds of affordable options for truly unique gifts to give, and many times - to collect, from their favorite artists that they may not have been able to afford in the past. It is an excellent time to create small original works in your signature style that will be very meaningful for both the giver, and the receiver, while gaining new admirers and supporters of your great work.
Artists that participated in the SubZERO Festival and / or STREET MRKT indie urban art faires 2026 are automatically accepted into HARK!.
All other interested artists that would like to participate should submit:
• a link to your art website or social channel
• a short bio
•exhibit history
and we’ll get back to you.
Please read through the invite below and RSVP by replying to this email by MONDAY OCTOBER 19th. (Due to limited space, we encourage your rsvp sooner rather than later to secure your inclusion in the show.)
