The Cultural Arts Association of Walton County is calling all businesses to be a part of Gallery Quest, the ArtsQuest event formerly called the Champagne Shopping Tour. Gallery Quest will kick off the 21st anniversary of ArtsQuest on Friday, May 1, 2009.

Due to the popularity of the Shopping Tour, the CAA has decided to expand the event to a day-long event and rename it Gallery Quest. Rather than concentrating on a few hours and featuring champagne, the CAA wants to take the entire day to showcase all the artistic endeavors in Walton Coutny. This will give each venue the opportunity to be creative in presenting their unique business.

All businesses, galleries, shops and eateries on or near the 30-A corridor are invited to participate. The criteria to participate are
1) Membership in the CAA – levels begin at $35;
2) Original art must be showcased during the event – this is not only limited to the visual, literary or performing arts, and the showcase could include haute couture, wine-making or fine cuisine;
3) Serving complimentary refreshments is optional; and
4) Featuring live artist demonstrations is encouraged.

All of the participating venues will be included in a Gallery Quest guide that includes a map of each location. This piece will be part of the 2009 ArtsQuest program guide that reaches 75,000 readers throughout Northwest Florida.

To be included in this highly anticipated event of ArtsQuest...
