(Tampa, Florida) Gasparilla Concours d’Elegance will host its third annual three-day automotive event December 2 – 4, 2021 at TPC Tampa Bay Golf Course (5300 W. Lutz Lake Fern Rd., Lutz, FL 33558-9233).  The theme is Celebrating 100 Years of Automotive Excellence, and the event will highlight cars and fashion from the 1900s to present day.

Saturday, December 3rd, is the main event, and artists will have the opportunity to display and sell their automotive and motorcycle related art to the large crowds expected to attend the activities celebrating the Concours d’Elegance (juried car competition).  The event include the Opening Ceremonies with a vintage plane flyover, a Vintage Fashion Show, the display and judging of the cars and motorcycles in the Concours and a Red-Carpet Awards Ceremony.  There will also be live entertainment throughout the day.

Art vendor booths will be prominently displayed so that the affluent targeted audience of car collectors and automotive enthusiasts will be drawn to view each artist’s works.  One vendor booth (valued at $1,000) will be given free of charge as a form of “scholarship” to one artist selected from those who apply online at  https://gasparillaconcours.com/artists. To be considered the artists should enter as soon as possible and no later than September 1, 2022.

The booths will include a tent, table and 2 chairs.  Artists may bring additional equipment necessary to display their art.  Additional information about a vendor booth can be obtained by calling (813) 714-1019.
