ARTISTS and MODELS AGES 14 to 20

  • While young artists and models are welcome to participate in the Wearable Art Show, they must be mature enough to be backstage without a parent/guardian. There will not be constant adult supervision backstage, and very limited capacity. Youth artists and models are not permitted in the bar area without a parent or legal guardian.

  • Artists and models ages 13 and younger will not perform in the February event, instead they will perform in the Youth Wearable Art Show on March 23rd, 2024. 

  • Artists between the ages of 14 and 18 may perform in both the February Wearable Art Show and in the Youth Wearable Art Show in March.

Is Artist between the ages of 14 and 118?
Parental/Guardian Permission for Artists between the ages of 14 and 18 to participate

Model(s) Information

There is a maximum number of 6 models for each piece. If you have multiple models and you are NOT the contact, please list the person who will contact the other models with info. All models must be 14 years old or older.

Are all models 14 years or older?
Input "Self" if you are the artist AND the Model
If you have multiple models, please list the person who will then contact the other models with info. Input "Self" if you are the artist AND the Model.
Again, just the leader's address, or "Self" if you are the Artist and the Model.

To minimize crowding backstage, and to adhere to capacity regulations of the venue, we will provide backstage passes for models and any artists who need to assist their models with intricate and/or cumbersome pieces only. We will not provide additional passes. Models helping Models, Artists helping Artists makes the world go 'round!

Each Individual Artist may submit up to two entries. Entries can include up to six models.

How many entries are you submitting? (You may only submit up to 2 entries.)
Are you using the same model(s) for both pieces?
Will your model(s) need your assisance?

Description of your Wearable Art piece

Will your piece fit through a door?

You must submit 3 images of your piece. The line up committee will make determinations based on the images you submit. Images can be a collage of ideas, a storyboard, a color palette, drawings, pictures of partially finished pieces, or ideally, images of the finished piece. The more complete you can be showing colors, materials, and how big the piece is - the better for creating a powerful line up for the audience's experience of your piece.

Use jpegs, jps, or pngs only. The system cannot accept any single image over 2GB.

Music

You must submit your music of 2 minutes or less here or via thumb drive or e-mail to the Arts and Humanities Council office. You must own the music and it must be in an MP3 or MP4 format. The entirety of your music must not exceed 2 minutes.

If multiple artists choose the same music, the first artist who turned in their application will be given priority for use, all others will need to find different music. The final decision about music selection and lineup will be made by the Wearable Art Show Committee.

You are not required to upload your music at this time, you may bring a thumb drive to the KAAHC instead. But you must provide composer (band) and title of your music choice.

No file selected
I grant permission for images, recordings, live streaming and KPU airings of my work to be used for KAAHC publicity and archival purposes.
I have informed my model(s) of all of the above, and he/she/they have consented to the use of photos, recordings, live streaming and KPU airings to be used for KAAHC publicity and archival purposes. My Models will sign a model release form.

Almost Done!!

You must click the "Go To Payment Page" button below and fill out the payment form, even if you are a member and do not owe any money!!!! Your Wearable Art Registration Form is not submitted to us until you complete the registration process. On the next page, you must choose either; "I am already an Artist Level Member or above", "Non-Member $75 Registration Fee", "Artist Level Member", or "Artist Family". Click the "Add to Cart" button then, finally, the "Complete Registration" button on the final page to submit your completed form. Whatever you do, DO NOT give up you are almost there!!! We have found that eating chocolate while filing out forms keeps you going!!!

If, after hitting the "Go to Payment Page", you don't get to a new screen....it means you didn't fill out something in this form. Scroll up and you will see bright red commands to fill something out, or to check a box. Then, if the stars have aligned, and you are pure of heart (and have eaten all of your chocolate) you should be able to move forward with your life.
