Share Your Work Be Part of The Marin Show: Art of the Americas
The California Indian Basketweavers Association (CIBA) will soon participate in the largest Indian Art Show and Sale in the country, The Marin Show: Art of the Americas, on February 25, 26 and 27. CIBA members will have an opportunity to enter their finest work in the large CIBA booth where it will be displayed and potentially sold. Each year thousands of collectors, buyers, and educators come from all over the world to attend the Marin Show. The CIBA Show Team will design and operate a large booth at the Marin Show on a professional level. The Team will establish a secure process for: (1) Accepting basketry for sale; (2) Documenting basketry; (3) Engaging the public and providing education; and (4) Managing the sales of basketry. Through this experience, CIBA will be preparing for a much larger role in the Marin Show next year. In 2012 CIBA will participate by providing speakers, education programs and potentially, increased sales of member basketry. Weavers who apply to CIBA to participate in the event will be required to pay a $30 fee. This fee will entitle each weaver to enter three baskets in the CIBA booth and will help offset the substantial cost of the booth rental. Weavers must set, and will receive, a fixed price for each basket. Baskets not sold will be returned to the weaver. The weaver must cover the cost of return mail. CIBA members may either ship their work via UPS or deliver, by appointment, their work to the Woodland office. Baskets entered in the Marin Show must be received by Monday, February 21, 2011. If you would like to be a working member of the CIBA Show Team, please contact the Woodland office. Please Note:
Neither CIBA, nor the management of The Marin Show: Art of the Americas, can guarantee the sale of any artifact or object. Objects entered into the CIBA booth will be handled carefully and will be well documented, but CIBA will not insure the work of contemporary weavers entered into The Marin Show: Art of the Americas. To apply for entry, please fill out this entry application form and mail it to Marin Show Entry, 1005 Court Street, Woodland, CA 95695. Please include a photo of yourself.
