Showcases A major component of ArtsMarket2000 is the series of artist showcases, 15-minute performances or presentations by 30 of our region's most talented performing, literary and visual artists who are interesting in touring to share their work. Artists will also be seen in 40-minute Residency Samplers, participatory events which demonstrate the creative exchange that occurs during a residency. All showcasing artists will be represented in the Marketplace. With a relaxed and inviting atmosphere, Marketplace is a perfect environment to build friendships and start talking business. Please indicate your interest on the registration form.
