Artists in the Juror’s Seat. An inerview with Zapp

Ever wonder what it’s like for the artists who serve on an art festival jury? Zapp interviewed me and James Pearce recently juried the 2025 Cherry Creek Arts Festival.

Zapp: “In this conversation, they share their approach to applying and participating in festivals, offer valuable advice for fellow artists, and reflect on their experience as jurors. Whether you’re a seasoned festival artist or just beginning your journey, their insights provide an inside look at what it takes to succeed in the competitive world of art festivals.”
