This event will be hosted at a non-traditional exhibition space that does not have standard gallery walls. Due to this, all wall hanging works must be light weight (under 30 lbs), be wired, be under 48 inches on all sides, and able to be hung securely with removable wall hooks. Works that require pedestal display will be considered, but must be noted as requiring one so a pedestal can be reserved. 

ABOUT THE EVENT:

‘EclektiFest’ is The Eclectika's first large-scale collaborative arts event hosted at an off-site location in Fort Worth. This event will feature two art exhibitions, vendors, local orgs, food, zines, and more! The two coinciding exhibitions for this event will feature select works from North Texas artists as well as an exhibition featuring work by incoming Eclektive members and the Eclectika team. Further details on participating organizations and vendors to be announced over the coming weeks.
