Description

'The Filley Festival on Fourth Street” a new event sponsored by the Filley Art Museum will take place outside on 4th street and along the corridor surrounding The Vernon Filley Art Museum and the Pratt Public Library on Thursday, August 1 from 5-8 p.m. Based upon feedback from businesses, the event will replace the former Art Walk. Artists will be assigned booth spaces along 4th Street from Merchant Park through the Filley Corridor on Jackson Street. Musicians will be stationed on a rotating schedule inside the art museum or in the Merchant Park stage. Businesses or other non-profits are invited to support the event through sponsorships. A $25 sponsorship will allow business or organization materials to be represented in our gift bags for attendees as well as be featured on promotional materials. Larger “presenting sponsor” opportunities are available and will allow additional, highlighted business/organization representation and/or naming. Food Truck Vendors have been invited to add to the fun, festival atmosphere along the '4th & Filley Corridor'. The Filley Museum will serve beverages as well as provide a water station during the event. A 'Filley Finale' Drawing Giveaway will happen at the museum near the end of the event. Participants can gain more raffle tickets by visiting each artist booth. We are looking forward to presenting outstanding talent to the community during this festive event that will promote art, music and more! All our best, Filley Staff and Filley Fest Committee: Martha Cortes; Lisa Perez Miller; Pamela Mayo; Ashley Smith; Cara Hanson; Derese McAbee; and Sue Givens
