The 2024 Annual Holiday Art Market (HART) at Foothills Art Center (FAC) is the premier venue for fabulous fine arts and crafts handmade in Colorado. This is the 49th HART and will be open through the holiday season from November 22 – December 29, 2024. Admission is free of charge to the public. The Market attracts hundreds of shoppers.

Community Gallery

We have made our selections for 2024/2025 but we are always looking for proposals for the future.

Please continue to submit to be considered for 2026 and beyond. To submit, simply email photos of your work and a brief proposal of what your show or series would be about to eriq@foothillsartcenter.org.

All proposals will be considered. See below for the dimensions of the space. Please remember that a modular wall system will be available to add hanging space for artists with larger
collections. All shows in the community Gallery will pay an honorarium of $250 to the artist and installation costs (not shipping) will be covered by FAC.

ONLINE APPLICATION ASSISTANCE

Artists needing assistance with the CaFÉ online system can contact CaFÉ directly.

ENTERING EXHIBITIONS ONLINE THROUGH CAFÉ

CaFÉ (which stands for Call for Entry) is one of the more popular websites for entering exhibitions online, and it’s the one that FAC uses for all of our juried exhibitions. We even make it less expensive to apply through CaFÉ – plus, we give you longer to apply!

One of the best things about CaFÉ is that they have great step-by-step instructions to help you use their website. Learn how to apply to calls for entry using CaFÉ. They make it very easy to set up a profile, search for opportunities, and apply to exhibitions.
