UVA is excited to offer a variety of opportunities for our community to participate in this year’s Annual Summer Arts Festival- whether as a vendor, performer, guest, volunteer, muralist, poster contest winner, young emerging artist, & more!

Umpqua Valley Arts is bringing back our poster contest for the 55th Annual Summer Arts Festival! We currently have an open call to artists to submit up the three images of artwork that illustrate the spirit of the festival and use aesthetics/colors that are in line with the design elements currently being used for marketing.

For more information and to apply, please visit our Artist Opportunities page.

UVA is looking for a public art/muralist artist to paint a mural on our building on campus that houses Imagination Station and The Clay Place. The accepted artist will participate in a “Live Mural Painting” during SAF! 

For more information and to apply, please visit our Artist Opportunities page.

Are you a young artist and entrepreneur between the ages of 8 and 18 looking for a chance to market your goods to people visiting and living in Douglas County? Sign up today to be considered as part of our first-ever group of emerging artist vendors featured at the Summer Arts Festival! If accepted for this unique opportunity, you will have a chance to sell your artwork at a major summer festival while also connecting with fellow artists and learning more about the business side of the creative process through included mentorship workshops.
