Creative Call
Artist & Talent Submission
Calling painters, poets, MCs, performers, and creatives to help turn O'Fallon Park into an outdoor art experience.
Canvas Couture is opening space for local artists and creatives to be part of the experience. We are looking for painters, poets, MCs, spoken word artists, visual artists, performers, and creative voices who want to bring their work, share their talent, and help create an outdoor community art exhibit at O'Fallon Park.
Artist submissions are free this year. Selected artists may have their work featured on the Canvas Couture website and may be invited to exhibit or perform live during the event.
Visual artists are encouraged to bring display racks, easels, stands, or clean presentation materials so their work can be shown professionally in the park.
Free Artist Submissions This Year
There is no fee to submit as an artist this year. We want local creatives to bring their work, show their talent, and help build the outdoor exhibit experience.
Some artists may be approved to sell artwork, but final approval and setup details must be confirmed by the event team.
