APPLICATION for new artists

This is a one-time application for all artists that are either new to the studio tour, or have been on the studio tour but are applying to show in a new medium. If you are accepted onto the tour, you will then need to set up your member account on this website and submit a yearly member contract (it’s online through the Members page and is called My Contract.) This year’s member contract is due by March 2, 2025.

WA State Business License (UBI) Number

A Washington State Business License (UBI) Number is required to be in the tour. If you don't have one, apply: https://bls.dor.wa.gov/.

Is your studio within the GHOST Tour Boundaries? (That map is available on the Join page)

Yes, my studio falls within the boundary

No, my studio is outside the boundary and I will need to share studio space with another artist

If sharing a studio, have you made arrangements to do so? If so, please name the Tour Artist who has invited you to share their studio. If not, we will match you with a Tour Artist who will host you in their studio.

I would like an artist mentor (an experienced artist who can talk to me about preparing for the tour, marketing and answer my questions)

YES

Three (3) digital images of your art

Make sure that your images look professional and are jpgs that are 2-3 MB (no thumbnails!) 2D art should only be of your art image (no background or frame.) 3D art and jewelry should have a plain background (ex, black or white) and have enough lighting to show good detail. Crop the image so that your art fills most of the image and make sure the image is crisp and does justice to your art.

One (1) digital image of your studio (if it is within the studio tour boundaries and you will be showing there) or your booth (if you will be showing at another artist's studio)

This should be a jpg image that is 2-3 MB. Make sure your display space looks professional, has good lighting and is represented well in your photo.
