Riverdale Art Walk

 

June 2 & 3 • 2012

 

The 14th Annual Riverdale Art Walk gives opportunity to 125+ artists to exhibit their work to art lovers, collectors, and the general public. Thousands of visitors experience this two-day arts festival, and that number is growing every year. Exhibiting artists are both established and emerging. It is a dynamic and fun event that gives visitors the opportunity to discover the “next great undiscovered artist” or that individual artist that connects with them on a personal level.

It is affordable for participating artists – and the size of the event means that individual artists do not get lost in the shuffle of some of the larger outdoor festivals.

The RAW offers opportunities for businesses and local organizations to partner with the Artistsʼ Network to draw an even larger audience to the area to discover its unique character and many attractions.

Saturday and Sunday
11am-6pm

The Artists

You can check out our participating artists in our online gallery and in the RAW Guide, coming out the last week of May in NOW Magazine. This year, we have over 120 artists participating with painting, mixed media, photography, drawing, sculpture, and printmaking.

The Food
