Fayette County’s Public Arts Committee is seeking artists to help kick off its new PopUp events.

The committee is sponsoring a series of temporary performance or visual arts projects, starting with one devoted to the senses of taste, touch, smell, sight and hearing. The events will be held on five different dates in 2018 and can represent a wide range of talents or skills. Applicants do not have to be Fayette County residents, but must provide photos of their work, videos of their performances or links to websites or portfolios. Inquiries should be sent to fcpac@fayettecountyga.gov.
