Jun 27 2008

For the Reporter

Equine Art 2008, an exhibition and sale of artwork that captures the elements of the horse, horse racing, the horse industry at large, and/or all that surrounds the horse, is scheduled for July 9-13 at Emerald Downs in Auburn.

The show is open to original equine fine art. No prints, giclees or other reproductions will be accepted, except in the case of photography/digital, and sculpture.

Entry fees for adults are $30 for the first piece and $20 for subsequent pieces. For intermediates (ages 13-18), the fees are $20 for the first piece and $15 for subsequent pieces. Pre-teens (ages 8-12) and children (7 and under) are free. In all instances, the entry limit is three per artist. A retail price must accompany all entries.

Shipped art must arrive by Monday, July 7 (but not before July 3). Hand-delivered art will be accepted on July 8 from 9 a.m.-3 p.m., and judging will take place on July 9.

The show, which will be on the track level, is open for public viewing July 10-13 during racing hours at Emerald Downs.

More information is available by calling the Washington Thoroughbred Breeders Association at (253) 288-7878, or online at www.washingtonthoroughbred.com, or by e-mailing to maindesk@washingtonthoroughbred.com.

The show is presented by the Washington Thoroughbred Breeders Association, in conjunction with the WTBA and Emerald Downs.
