Thank you neighbors, volunteers, vendors, friends for all you do to make the Old Town Art Fair a truly unique, welcoming and successful event! The artists were thrilled, the guests loved everything about the Fair and, of course, the Old Town Triangle Association is thrilled to be able to share the proceeds with our grant recipients and our neighbors through committee works. We could not do any of this without you.
Please do plan to join us on Friday, June 17th from 6 – 9:30 as we celebrate YOU! This is our way of thanking you for your time, your kindness, your inconveniences, and for being you!
Friday, North Park from Willow to Menomonee! (Think Disco…)
Show off this year’s amazing poster design and support the Old Town Art Fair with a special edition t-shirt. You may recall that we ran out last year, very early! To ensure that members don’t run into that situation again, the Merchandise Committee has purchased a range of sizes for early distribution. Multiple dates will be offered for pick up at the Old Town Triangle office.
