Register NOW!

Visual Artist Registration: March 1st – May 1st, 2018

The METFEST is currently accepting applications from visual artists for outdoor street exhibit space.

We are seeking highly qualified local, regional and national practioners with expertise in all media – oil, acrylics, ink, watercolor, clay, glass, precious stones, textiles, photography, fiber, etc. – to consider participation.

The festival uses an online registration system called ZAPP®, which enables individual artists to apply to multiple art shows through one central website and to upload digital images of artwork for jury review.

Registration Process

  • Search for "2018 Metuchen Art & Music Festival - METFEST”
  • Upload six images of work that is representative of what will be exhibited
    • Applicants will also be requested to include a picture of themselves and a brief biographical sketch

    ZAPP has several benefits: artists no longer need to complete multiple-page paper applications; they receive email notifications with application status and other relevant information; and they are eligible for invitations to many other high-quality art festivals across the country.

    Setting up a profile in ZAPP should take no longer than 10 minutes and is FREE for artists to join. This is the only way to register for participation in the METFEST.

    For more information on registration or the event itself, please contact the Metuchen Chamber of Commerce at (732) 548-2964 or at metuchenchamber@optimum.net.
