Musicians will not be the only artists at the 43rd Annual Eau Claire Jazz Festival this April. The Eau Claire Jazz Festival is seeking visual artists to be a part of this jazz celebration by submitting and displaying their jazz-inspired artwork at local venues throughout the Chippewa Valley. test

The purpose of this Jazz Art Crawl is to provide a visual means to interpret and celebrate jazz music. The Art Crawl will be promoted as part of the larger Eau Claire Jazz Festival throughout Wisconsin, encouraging visitors to attend and view the art. Any purchases will be through the artist, with no commission to the Festival or venue. All artwork will be displayed April 5th-May 3rd. 

Deadline for all submissions is Friday, March 26.

Artists will receive recognition at the artist reception, two complimentary tickets to a performance of his/her choice and a listing on the Jazz Art Crawl webpage www.eauclaireajazz.com/artcrawl with a picture and bio of the artist along with the art to be displayed. 

Interested artists must complete a registration form and return with a $15 registration fee. For more information call the Eau Claire Jazz Festival office at 715.836.4092 or e-mail info@eauclairejazz.com.
