Art in the Park 2021
June 5 & 6
Join us again, the first weekend in June, at Willistead Manor, as we bring back Art in the Park 2021. After a disappointing 2020, we are excited to be planning this iconic event in our community. The committee is hard at work planning and preparing to receive our exhibitors and guests at this year’s event. Although the event may look a bit different with COVID – 19 protocols in place, we are committed to bringing to our community the high-quality event for which we have been known, for more than 40 years. We are committed to maintaining a safe and secure space for our guests, exhibitors, and volunteers.
Art in the Park 2021 will be making some changes to ensure everybody’s safety, such as online ticket sales, mandatory masking and physical distancing. Three of the four gates will be dedicated to pre-purchased tickets, making these line ups much more manageable. One gate will be for purchasing tickets on-site but will be cashless. The number of exhibitors we accept into the show will be lower, allowing us to space out the tents for greater safety. Masks will be mandatory in the park. There will be an increase in handwashing stations, and hand sanitizer will be available at each booth. There will be no ATMs on site as we are encouraging the exhibitors to go cashless for safety. Protocols will evolve and change as we get closer to June 5th and 6th, and we have a better idea of what the outlook will be.
We are encouraged by other outdoor events that have taken place and were deemed safe and successful during the pandemic. The committee is confident that we will have a successful and safe event for all involved. We look forward to seeing you all again after one tough year.
