CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: LA SUPERETTE 2006
www.lasuperette.org
ABOUT LA SUPERETTE:
La Superette is an annual event, an art sale held usually around the holiday season in December. We organize a temporary store where artists sell functional art in multiples at affordable prices. In addition to the sale we usually schedule musical performances as well as puppet shows, and video screenings to run throughout the day. The project is conceived and organized as a place for artists to meet and collaborate on a specific project. We publish a catalog zine, which distributes contact information of all participating artists, host a web catalog on this site, and produce a video catalog which is screened at the event. La Superette 2005 included more than 100 artists and attracted thousands of visitors and shoppers.
