The Sidewalk Arts Festival is a fundraiser for the Visual Arts Center. It is the largest one-day art festival in the region. According to The Washington Pavilion's website, "Proceeds from the festival support programming at the Visual Arts Center, including exhibitions, art classes, and a permanent collection. The Visual Arts Center brings the visual arts to children and adults through exhibitions, education, collections, and special events."
All the streets around The Washington Pavilion will be blocked off to make room for all the fun. In a press release, the folks from The Washington Pavilion explain what to expect, "More than 220 fine art, folk art, craft, nonprofit and food vendors will be in attendance. The Great Western Bank parking ramp will be converted into a food court with several food and beverage vendors. There will also be fun and exciting activities for children, including face painting, in the Children’s Studio, located in the Paladino Hohm Sculpture Garden."
If the food trucks don't tickle your fancy, Leonardo's Café will be open from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. serving sandwiches, wraps, salads, soup, flatbreads, and kid-friendly favorites.
Everyone's favorite mascot, Radley Rex, is scheduled to appear in the Paladino Hohm Sculpture Garden at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.
