Allan Kidd, Chair of Art in the Park, tells AM800 they have the room to add more vendors. Last year they had 275 exhibitors – a record-breaking amount.
“Well we bring in all kinds of things, everything from water colours to waffles. We hope to have about 300 exhibitors this year. We’re going to have food, entertainment, and all kinds of things.”
Organizers say the event is one of Ontario’s largest outdoor arts and crafts shows, with exhibitors from all over Ontario and Quebec.
The exhibitors display and retail their wares in booths set up around the 15.5 acres of gated grounds surrounding the beautiful and historic Willistead Manor in Walkerville (Windsor), Ontario.
This will be the 44th year that the Rotary Club of Windsor (1918), acting as the agent for the Rotary Club of Windsor Foundation Fund, will be presenting Art in the Park in Windsor.
All proceeds raised from admission to the event go toward supporting the restoration of Willistead Manor and the charitable projects of the Rotary Club of Windsor (1918).
