Evening of the Arts 2026

Evening of the Arts is looking for small business vendors who specialize in clothing, home décor, jewelry, soap, candles, digital art, sculptures, paintings, art prints, photos, hand-made items, and embroidery. This application is open to businesses offering original, handmade items like fine art, decorative pieces, and artisanal products. Small business owners providing goods and services on the event day, such as candle makers or custom clothing creators, essential oils, charm bracelets, and painting crafts, are also invited.  

***This application does not apply to individuals who work for large companies that provide services such as insurance, gutter cleaning services, lessons/tutoring, etc.  

Evening of the Arts is one of three major events for the City of Lawrenceville, hosted at the Lawrenceville Arts Center. This event is from 3 PM to 9 PM. However, vendor check-in is from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm. All vendors must be prepared to greet the public by 2:45 PM. Application approvals for this event will take place throughout June and July. Additional load-in information will be emailed on the Monday before the event.  

• Evening of the Arts features live music and entertainment throughout the day, so please be aware of that when preparing for the event. Please note that we limit competing products at our events. 

Evening of the Arts is looking to interest local businesses, organizations, and community members in a booth space to share the arts at the Lawrenceville Arts Center. All participants will be provided a 10 x 10 booth space but must provide their own tent, table, chairs, and any additional art supplies. We want to provide our event participants with a variety of free art experiences. We will likely not accept multiples of the same activity.


Some suggestions/ideas:

• String Art
• Collaborative Art Pieces
• Sand Art
• Eco-Friendly Art Projects
• Friendship Bracelet Station 
• Macramé Activity

 This application is for interested parties who want to offer an interactive activity at their booth. This is not a sales opportunity. Guests will need to participate in some kind of activity, art project, etc.  We want our community members to feel drawn toward your booth in a fun and positive way, thus creating a positive connection between your business/organization and our community. By choosing to host an activity booth, you have the opportunity to spend more time with each guest and really allow the connection to foster and grow.  This event is from 3 PM to 9 PM. However, vendors will be loading between 1:00 PM and  2:00 PM. All vendors must be prepared to greet the public at 3:00 PM. Vendors may be offered an early load out but more information will be available closer to the event. Application approvals for this event will take place throughout June and July. Additional load-in information will be sent via email on the Monday before the event.  Evening of the Arts features live music and entertainment throughout, so please be aware of that when preparing for the event.
