So today marks the day that submissions open on http://www.cnoteartshow.com for the 2009 version of the 100 dollar arts blitz called the C Note Art Show.

The website has been completely redesigned and shortly will integrate more social networking options. you will notice a few initial changes that I hope will add to the event in this itteration. My personal favorite is a scrolling gallery on the home page that will link right to the artists who painted the images. You may also notice that the event will fill a whole weekend with times to view and shop from Friday-Sunday on the last weekend of September.

So if you are an artist make sure that you sign up sooner than later as this offers you free exposure and promotion leading upto and even after the event.

Sponsorships are still being accepted and many cross promotional opportunities exist so if your company would like to partner or you know of an interested party send an email to cnoteartshow@gmail.com

Volunteer shifts are also available if you would like to add a little elbow grease to the efforts of the show. We can use folks to help prep the venue, art intake and pick up, as well as door staff for ther different days of the event. If interested please send an email with your contact info to cnoteartshow@gmail.com and the cordinator will be in contact.

More to come but for now get those art submissions in and drop by and vote for your fovorite artist today!!!

Core, I'll be submitting some work, but I also wante dto ask if you were looking for entertainment options. As Ive stated here a couple times, I'm a DJ and would love to do a set. No, I won't do all reggae (we've all had that discussion), but mix reggae, hip hop and r&b.

Just asking. I'll do it for free.

I have considered different options on entertainmnet, but happen to be open minded on that front. EMail me at Coreroc@gmail.com with an idea of your set time and content. I have a full PA, mixing board, mixer, mic, and 1200's. Anything else you would need to supply.

I look forward to your work and ideas on music!

The show allows 6 pieces to get sumbitted tot he website. However the show is curated with the thought that at least 1 peice from everyone will be included. I have in limited situations allowed more than 6 pieces with my permission involved. However with 300 artists that can get out of control fast. So submit up to 6 works and I promise that 1 will get in. I really try not to exclude much within reason when I curate the works.

I also want to thank walker for his tweets as they have generated some interest in the show!. From that I have seen a few question sent to my email from CU and we will be updating the website with a FAQ section to answer these kinds of questions on the website.

*Any kind of work can be submitted from paintings to sculpture to jewlery to photography.The only condition is that it must be original work created by the person who submits it. All work must be ready to hang with a wire or saw tooth and will run the risk of not showing if they are not presented ready to hang. All works submitted must be the exact works that are for sale and NOT just an example of your work!

* The fee for artist is $5 for this edition, but I will instantly waive the fee for anyone who signs up for a volunteer shift prior to the drop off date. Note that no comission will be taken from the artists if work sells the entire $100 goes in your pocket and myself and C Note staff will handle all sales for you and pay out at pickup.

Submissions end on the 15th at midnight. So far 500+ works have been submitted and close to 320 have been jurried into the show. Several of ouor CU family artists have great work in the show and many folks created work just for this event. So you really can't beat brand spanking new paintings for $100 out the door.

Submissions closed at midnight last night and I selected around 400 works out of nearly 700 submitted from over 220 artists. Some of the works are just way to good of a deal and should go fast. That said I am starting to accept names for the preview will call list. If your interested in reserving a number of tickets email me at coreroc@gmail.com with your info and how many in your group. Groups of 10 in for a c note if you wrangle friends in advance. Also Private viewings are available Wednesday and Thursday of next week for $50 per couple and offer absolute first chance at the work and zero crowds around while you choose your new work(s).

I little more information to flow over the next week but if anyone has any questions let me know and I will be glad to help in any way.
