This exhibition has been taking place for the past 24 years. The exhibition is a collaborative initiative in which professional artists expose audiences to a unique arts experience. All of the sculptures in this exhibition are created for the outdoors. Viewing outdoor sculpture in a natural and domestic garden setting is an excellent way to enhance the interpretation of sculptural art. The venue allows for the exhibition of very large sculptural pieces as well as smaller more intimate works placed in a natural outdoor setting. The high caliber of the artist exhibiting enhances the reputation of our county as a place where artistic excellence is flourishing. It was originally started by me, Tinka Jordy in 1994. The selection process is to invite artists who meet criteria of excellence and professionalism. Once artists are participating, I welcome their recommendations to invite future artists as guests. By inviting different guest artist each year, it keeps the annual show exciting for the patrons. I also attempt to keep at least half of the artist Orange County residents to support the local art scene. I have developed a website specifically for this once a year event under the name Garden Art Gallery Invitational (http: / /www.garden- art- gailery.com) so that I can continue to promote the show throughout the year. You may also see past exhibitors featured on the website The exhibition does not take commissions from the artist. It is a cooperative effort, with the expenses divided equally among the artists. No commission for sales are collected with 100 percent of the sales proceeds going directly to the artist. The show is advertised through direct mail, social media, print and online. This has proven to be a successful venue for both artist and patrons that are both collectors and new to the process of buying art. This year, May 2019 will be our twenty fifth anniversary and I seek funding to further broaden the reach of our audience through both print and online advertising to attract visitors both adults and children alike who will learn to recognize the cultural richness of Orange County as an arts destination. DocuSign Envelope ID: 943B59E0 -2CA5- 491E- 8AC6- F48A98EB419E This cooperative exhibition has proven to be a valuable asset to Orange County in that it is providing an excellent venue to attract the public from as far away as the bordering states of North Carolina. This audience creates a valuable opportunity for local sculptors to both display and sell their work in a unique environment. The show has a substantial draw because the exhibiting artists are professional, nationally recognized artists with strong followings. Two sample resumes are included and past artist may be found on the website. All artists are required to be available throughout the exhibition to share insights about their art and process with the public. It is important goal that our patrons come away with an experience that is personal, informal but informative. Invariably, they are significantly impressed with the caliber of the art they have seen and the overall experience of the show. The community is educated in the realization that sculptural art is not only for public spaces and museums but to be enjoyed in everyday life in our homes. It is also an educational experience for children who interact with many of the pieces and have an opportunity to meet the sculptors who are present throughout the event. Artist Experience This will be the 25th Year that I have organized this event. This show has grown in overall artistic quality and reach with each year. estimate that over the 24 years we have exposed thousands of visitors including children, to this unique experience of seeing sculpture in domestic gardens and the opportunity to talk with the sculptors about their process in a relaxed setting. The artist that display their work find that the sales for this event are some of the best for their year. The artist also enjoy the relaxed time with patrons to get in depth feed back of their work unlike many sculpture exhibitions where the work is dropped off and installed for a period of time. Most years a majority of the artists sell half of what they bring. Many of the artist receive calls from patrons throughout the year requesting commissioned works based on the exposure from this show.
