Art + Music jam Event: Artist Submission FORM

Creative Concord invites artists from Contra Costa County and surrounding Bay Area counties to participate in a 2-day art painting “jam” at Todos Santos Park in Concord, CA on October 5th and 6th, 2024. The Art + Music Jam event during Creative Concord is an annual celebration of arts & culture bringing together community and creatives with live music, art experiences, and special performances. This event is an ideal opportunity for artists to meet, mingle, and connect with other local artists as well as gain exposure in a welcoming public setting.

Each selected participant will be provided with an 60”x72” canvas and a $575 stipend. When the artworks are completed we plan to showcase them at our pop-up gallery and offer the artworks for sale with 100% of the profits going to the artists.

If you are interested in participating in this artwork painting experience, please fill out the form on the right in order to be considered by our jury. In addition to completing the form, please email us at least 2 examples of your work.
