The Dover Art League Presents:

THE ARTFUL SANTA

Artists Needed

Our theme for the holiday season is The Artful Santa: encouraging the notion of shopping for one-of-a-kind gifts at the DAL. 

From Thanksgiving until the New Year, we want to pack the gallery full of handmade affordable items under $75.

Would you like your artwork to be displayed?

Artwork may be dropped off during regular business hours

November 10-20th.  Our goal is to have the artwork displayed by Black Friday, November 25th.  If you have any questions, please contact us at 674-0402.

Artist Meet and Greet Party

The Dover Art League will host a Holiday Cocktail Party & Artist Meet and Greet on December 2 from 5-8.  The Party will coincide with the Downtown’s First Friday event.

We would love for you to attend! 

Shoppers will have a chance to chat with the artists, while enjoying live music, tasty hors d’oeuvres and cocktails. There is no fee for the event…it’s a celebration of artists and the season, open to all.

Best holiday wishes!
