The Old Fourth Ward Arts Festival is looking for artists to set up shop during the two-day event in May.

About 130 artists will participate in the annual Atlanta Foundation for Public Spaces event, which takes place at the Historic Fourth Ward Park. But before they can become vendors, artists must fill out an application by April 15.

Acceptable art forms include categories such as ceramics, mixed media, jewelry and photography. Prohibited items include T-shirts and commercial clothing; posters; manufactured toys; commercially manufactured or reproduced items (resale); jewelry made from more than 50 percent manufactured components; and any item that employs the use of commercially available molds or patterns.
