About the application

Thank you for your interest in participating in the Chain of Parks Art Festival!Please be sure to scroll all the way down and read over all the information before applying as we have done our best to answer all your questions before you submit your application! This is an electronic agreement and by applying, you are validating and approving this agreement electronically.
 
Historically, Community Partners have been in our Children's park area called "The Village". This year (to accommodate a new Folk Art Feature), we've created "The Community Corner", which will be located at a focal entrance of the festival off of Monroe Street (near Il lusso)!  The purpose of this area is to promote non-profit organizations that support the arts in our community. The Community Corner incorporates Community Partners and Brand Ambassadors, welcoming festival goers as they begin their exploration of the festival! This area within the Festival provides opportunities for community connections to an estimated 35-40,000+ enthusiastic visitors over the festival weekend! What is a Community Partner?
  • Community Partners include local non-profits that bring fun educational activities to engage visitors in hands-on interactions to broaden their experiences and knowledge.
  • Community Partners pay $100 to have a 10x10 booth space to share information about their organization and mission.
  • To become a Community Partner, you must have an interactive experience for visitors to engage with (i.e. a group art project, raffle, game, etc). 
  • Community Partners cannot sell anything except for memberships. They are welcome to hand out information packets and flyers. 
  • Community Partners must set up their own tent, but the festival will provide 1 table and 2 chairs. We encourage branded decor (i.e. table cloths, banners, etc.)
Please note! Our Pop-Up Children's Art Studios and Heritage Booths will remain in the Children's Park. We recommend reading over those applications if you think that's a better fit for your organization.    Your participation in the Festival provides the following benefits:
  • Outreach opportunities to an estimated 35-40,000+ visitors to the festival interested in art
  • Listing in the Festival Program distributed to hotels, sponsors, and at the festival
  • One 8’ table and two chairs delivered to your booth space
