www.artinfoboy.org The New Art Festival is a celebration of original, one-of-a-kind art & fine craft and the artists who create it. This unique event is geared to strengthen the connections among visual artists, craftspeople, art educators, galleries and the public.
Ottawa's hugely popular outdoor art exhibition is a free, family-oriented event in a beautiful park setting. This exhibition attracts thousands of visitors annually (previous years' estimate: 10,000 over two days).
Participating artists are selected by a jury comprised of practicing artists and arts professionals. We invite local food vendors to participate, provide shaded rest areas, do excellent publicity and work hard to make sure that the two days are fun and comfortable for the artists and the public. We know that art does sell at this show and that it is a tremendous networking opportunity.
Prizes are awarded in several categories.
