New Art Festival

Saturday June 6th & Sunday June 7th Central Park (Bank & Clemow) in the Glebe, Ottawa. 10am & 5pm, Rain or shine.

Formerly known as Art in the Park, the New Art Festival is Ottawa’s largest non-profit, non-commercial outdoor art exhibition. To honour our art community & all its hard-working artists & craftspeople, this year’s festival is fully juried. The event will remain in the Glebe district’s beautiful Central Park & will continue to offer free admission in a family-friendly environment. It will also feature organic food providers from the community. This year, prizes will be awarded for Best 2-Dimensional Artist, Best 3-Dimensional Artist & Best Student Artist, as selected by The New Art Festival’s 2009 jury. The New Art Festival is a place where you can see original art & meet the artists.

Fresh from the Toronto Contact Photography Festival the final event of ‘Beautiful Destruction – Alberta Tar Sands Aerials’ Exhibition is showing at the New Art Festival at Central Park in the Glebe this weekend. http://www.beautifuldestruction.ca
