We’d like to invite you to submit original artwork for Wimberley StoryFest 2023. The artwork will be juried, and selected work will be displayed for sale in a silent auction during our kick-off gala event on January 12, 2023, at Old Glory Ranch in Wimberley.

We ask artists to submit work based on the theme of the evening: ‘Once Upon a Time’…where our stories began
The centerpiece of the evening will be the premier screening of Elizabeth Buckley’s documentary film: ‘The Stars at Night’
The film features: the connection between the night sky and mythology; astronomy; ancient legends; and Native-American stories…
​
The evening of gala events will also include:

• W.F. Strong, our narrator for the evening, and other story tellers will connect and entertain us with an exploration of stories
• We’ll enjoy live music and thoughtfully prepared culinary offerings with wine and beer pairings
• A juried art show, featuring amazing area artists, will be on display
• A star party, complete with telescopes for viewing Wimberley’s night sky, will top off the evening

 
We hope you’ll participate in this open-call and pass it along to other artists. Attached you’ll find pertinent information, dates, and details in the ‘Call for Art Submissions’.  Please reach out if you have any questions or contact us for a printable prospectus.
