Art in the Park Oakville - Less Than a Month Away! Get Ready to Shine!

 

Art in the Park Oakville
Hi Everyone,

Just a friendly reminder that Art in the Park Oakville is less than a month away – Monday, August 5th, from 10am to 5pm at Waterfront Heritage Park!

It's time to dust off your displays, stock up on your best work, and get those sales mechanisms ready! For many artists, cash, cheques, and personal point-of-sale systems (like Square) are popular choices. Sales are the most important part of the day - be prepared!

Heads up – the park has public Wi-Fi, but with a big crowd, it might be a little overwhelmed on the day. Consider having offline options for processing sales.

Traffic and Parking:

Here's an important update: Northbound Bronte Road is currently closed for construction. Be mindful of this when planning your arrival. You can still access the park from Bronte Road southbound, but when leaving, you'll need to use an alternate route northbound, like Jones Street or Nelson Street.

The good news is the parking lots next to the field have been completely redone – brand new and ready for you!

Weather and Tents:

While we're all sending positive vibes for a hot and sunny day, it's always good to be prepared. Please keep this in mind, and read through the exhibitor checklist on our website. It has some great tips for handling inclement weather

Important Note: We can't stake anything into the park ground. You will need to secure your tent with sufficient weights. If you need tent weights, Higgins rents "Just Tent Weights" at a reasonable price.

Let's Make it a Great Show!

We can't wait to see you all there! Take a look at the exhibitor checklist for more details, and let's get ready to have a fantastic day showcasing our art and connecting with the Oakville community.

See you soon!

The Art in the Park Oakville Team
