Apply now

Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens invites artists of all mediums to submit an application to exhibit their original work at the 30th annual Art in the Gardens, a juried art show and summer festival. The two-day event will take place on Saturday, August 5 and Sunday, August 6 from 11:00am to 5:00pm. All artists must commit to setting up and participating in both days of the event. This event is a major fundraiser for the Gardens and attracts as many as 1,500 guests each year. Artist booths will be located on our Event Lawn just a short walk from the Ocean Bluffs. Don’t miss this ideal opportunity to meet new clientele!

There is a non-refundable application fee of $30 (no booth fee). If selected, each artist will be required to turn in a 25% commission to the Gardens at the end of the event (5:00PM; 8/6/23). All artists will be responsible for handling their own sales.

PLEASE NOTE: Some areas of the Gardens have little or no Wi-Fi/cellular service. Please be prepared to handle sales offline. The Gardens cannot handle transactions for artists.

To be considered in the jury process, please complete the 2023 Artist Application online by March 24, 2023.
