There are just days left for artists to submit their applications for the Anne McKee Artists Fund’s 2023 Fine Art Auction. Complete submission must be received before midnight on November 18th.
“We strongly encourage artists to submit early instead of at the last minute,” said Board Chair Marsha Williams. “If anything is missing or you have questions, you could miss the deadline and we cannot reopen the submission process.”
The auction itself will be held on March 12, 2023 at The Studios of Key West, 533 Eaton St, Key West, Florida.
Online applications and accompanying photos can be submitted from our website at www.mckeefund.org. Artists will be notified of acceptance no later than December 15th. Accepted Artists will be notified about Art drop off date at the Studios.
Only 50 entries will be accepted due to space and time limitations. The Anne McKee Artists Fund of the Florida Keys, Inc., in its sole discretion, determines whether art submitted will be accepted for auction.
Each participating artist receives 50 percent of the proceeds from the sale of his or her work, while the McKee Fund receives the remainder to award to other Keys artists for select projects. Founded by longtime Key West resident Anne McKee, the not-for-profit fund has awarded close to $400,000 since its inception in 1994.
