Emerging Artists Expo
The Emerging Artist Expo, part of the Corn Hill Arts Festival, is open to artists between the ages of 15 and 25 who have never participated in a juried arts festival. This exposition provides young artists with the opportunity to display and sell their artwork.
The Emerging Artist Expo debuted at the 2009 Corn Hill Arts Festival and was enormously successful. In an effort to cultivate and assist our local (Rochester and surrounding areas) young artists, the Corn Hill Arts Festival Emerging Artist Expo offers the opportunity to experience showing and selling artwork at our festival in an easy and low-cost manner.
This year the Emerging Artist Expo is presented by Archer Communications and features artwork from the following up-and-coming artists.
