Promoted by Dash Events in association with Rio Grande Festivals, 150 juried artists and craftsmen will be invited to showcase their work in the 7th Annual Cheesman Park Art Fest. This two-day, outdoor show takes place beneath century-old trees in Cheesman Park, an 80 acre sprawling greenscape in the heart of the Mile High City. Set at the convergence of three historic neighborhoods with a population density 4 times the city average, the demographics and location of this festival can't be beat!
The Cheesman Park Art Fest has gotten rave reviews from the artist community, and attendees flock to shop and enjoy the perfectly charming atmosphere of the show. Sunshine Artist's 200 Best has already listed the show among the top 35 in the nation twice in its young 6 years. While the show has steadily grown each year in popularity and attendance, it remains limited in the number of vendors. Join us as this show takes root and grows along with the city of Denver!

Waterfront Art Festival 2019 - Webster, New York
DEADLINE: 2/15/2019
Fee (Application Fee): $30.00
Event Dates: 7/27/2019 - 7/28/2019
Event Website
The 46th Annual Waterfront Art Festival is a high quality art and craft show and sale held in Webster, NY which is a suburb of Rochester. We set the stage for artists by offering really good, low key music that can be heard throughout the Festival, a Tastings Tent with beer, wine and cider, a full food court and many artists who demonstrate their skills at the Festival. It is 100% outdoors, about half of the spaces offer shade and the Festival area is laid out to circle a beautiful pond so there are no bad spaces. We typically have between 7,000 and 10,000 adult visitors over the weekend and they do tend to be buyers. Many of our long tenure artists report that they sell better at the Waterfront than at much larger area events because of more opportunity to interact and the small $3.00 admission fee we charge. We do substantial advertising and promotion and work on all of the small details to bring it all together for a wonderful weekend in the park with fabulous art, great music and thousands of happy visitors who will want to enjoy your work at home.
