"Four pop-up shops have been held in Hastings previously and Art Hawke's Bay is excited to be holding this one in Napier. The artwork will be selected, so artists should choose their best work to enter."
There will be a limit of two paintings per person, displayed at $10 a painting.
A commission on sales is taken by CAN.
"Here's an opportunity to treat yourself to some new art for Christmas – or maybe a great gift solution while supporting local artists."
There are no theme or medium restrictions.
"This is for them (artists). As we realised years ago, there isn't the opportunity for artists to sell their work apart from galleries."
Sheryl says each artwork must have a label attached to the back with the name, title, medium and price, otherwise they won't be accepted.
All exhibits will be for sale.
"It will be a cash-and-carry concept, so artists could be rung to say bring in another artwork."
Details of entries need to be emailed to Sheryl or Winnie by Monday, October 10.
"They can also add their phone number. We then have to supply this to CAN so they can print up labels."
The artworks need to be at CAN on Thursday, October 20, between 11am and 2pm. Selection will take place at 2pm.
"Once entries are in, I will compile a list of those entering and will email them all regarding any more information."
