Artisan is a body of work competition. Generalists as well as specialists are
encouraged to enter and compete. Her Excellency Ekaterina wishes to see a
diversity of endeavor. The minimum requirement for Artisan candidates is one
object and art that is heavily documented and at least three other objects
and arts that are moderately documented. <br>
<br>
Other objects and arts in your display should have some documentation. Her
Excellency would also like to see the results of at least one thing you have
tried that just did not 'stick' or 'click' with you. <br>
<br>
You will be required to sit with your display during judging hours, or have
someone who is knowledgeable about your display to cover for you if you need
a short break. There will be a lunch break, with entrants and judges given
first crack at the potluck. Judges will be easily identifiable by the
colorful sashes they will be wearing. <br>
<br>
Her Excellency encourages young people to display their projects. Special
recognition will be given to young people willing to show and discuss their
arts. <br>
<br>
Group projects are also encouraged. Documentation should be presented by all
persons involved in the process. <br>
<br>
Display space will be available for those wishing to show their arts without
entering the competition. Space is limited and available on a first come /
first served basis. </span></p>
