The show will go on - online! With the coronavirus pandemic, the Oxford Community Center faced the decision of either cancelling the show or adapting to create community online, and OCC chose the latter. In an effort to bring artists and their incredible original work into the lives and homes of art enthusiasts and supporters, OCC built a Virtual exhibit and sales show.
In its 36th year, Oxford Fine Arts celebrates artists from around the Mid-Atlantic. This year the juror was Alan Brock. Alan is an artist, an architect, fine art collector, and art dealer. Alan selected the artists with 36% new to the festival.
The Oxford Community Center’s Virtual Show opens on Friday, May 15th with the Exclusive Preview. All preview ticket holders will receive a private code to enjoy a first look at the full exhibit and entrance into the online marketplace. The marketplace will be open to those private code holders from noon to midnight Friday. They get the first opportunity to buy the art! The Exclusive Preview Ticket is available now on oxfordcc.org for $80. This ticket also includes passage to a cocktail party when COVID-19 restrictions are lifted. We will celebrate together in person and share stories of the wonderful art bought from the comfort of your homes.
The exhibit opens to the public via the website, Saturday, May 16th and Sunday, May 17th. On Sunday the raffle winners will be announced, and the show is closed at 5:00 pm. The raffle items will be added to the website as soon as we receive them from the artists, so keep checking the site! The raffle art is visible on the “meet the artists” page on the OCC website and in the digital program book.
The Oxford Fine Arts Show is a tradition born of love for art and artists. During this time of social distancing, participating in a virtual community is more important than ever. These efforts will help support the artist during a period where many art shows have been canceled and their work needs a platform. Hopefully, art supporters from far and near will participate in the Virtual Show and remain meaningful supporters of the arts. It is OCC’s mission to find ways to connect people and utilize our tools to affect social integration. This has been a challenging time for the Center as well with months of cancelled events, so we appreciate your participation in this Show. Stay Healthy – Stay Home – and enjoy beauty in the world – Virtually.
