Right now students across Oregon and beyond are drawing imaginary animals and submitting them to the Lake Oswego Festival of the Arts.

We are looking for artists of all mediums who would like to join in our 2024 celebration of the imagination by applying to become one of the IMAGINATION MENAGERIE artists.

If selected, you will be required to:
-Select one imaginary animal drawn by a student
-Recreate that animal in your chosen medium
-Photograph your work by April, 2024.
-Bring your finished work to Lakewood Center for the 2024 Festival (dates are pending, but it will likely be on Father’s Day or just before).
-Price the finished piece for sale. The Festival will retain a 40% commission, so please price your work accordingly!
