  • Fort Lauderdale, FL (1888PressRelease) April 06, 2011 - Award-winning festival promoter Howard Alan Events returns to Jacksonville this spring with a wide array of original art on display and available for sale during the 43rd Annual Mandarin Art Festival April 23 - 24, 2011. This highly anticipated event held at the Mandarin Community Club features leading artists from around the country as well as the finest local talent. A $1 per person admission fee benefits the Mandarin Country Club and it is open to the public.

    This art extravaganza, one of Jacksonville's top shows of the year, appeals to people of all ages with its children's art show, a one-of-a-kind green market, as well as an egg hunt for a family friendly Easter weekend event. The extensive displays offer art collectors a perfect opportunity to add to their collections.

    Bold and vibrant paintings, contemporary and whimsical art, life-size sculptures, photography and jewelry are among the many works of art that will be featured on the grounds of the Mandarin Community Club. This popular festival makes the arts accessible to a broad audience with its eclectic mix of art and prices that range from $25 hand-designed earrings to $20,000 sculptures.

    All artists will be on site for the duration of the show, available to discuss their art and inspiration. "The art show is a great way to explore the work of many different artists in one setting," says festival promoter Howard Alan. "You have the opportunity to meet and connect with the artist before making a purchase, which makes the investment much more meaningful and personal."

    The artists were juried by an independent panel of expert judges, and hand-selected from hundreds of applicants based on quality and diversity. All of the artwork is original and handmade in America.
