Hello to all of our loyal readers! We have been extremely busy for the past two weeks preparing for this weekend’s Ethnic Arts Festival at Dawes Park in Evanston. We all hope you are as excited as we are for a weekend of ethnic art, music, dancing and food. Just to give you a look into what will be featured at this year’s festival, I’ve prepared a handy-dandy overview!
* 116 Artist Vendors with 125 Booth Spaces
* Over 20 Entertainers on Two Stages
* Over 10 Family Arts Activities and Workshops
* 15 Food Vendors
* Silent Auction featuring items from Participating Artists
* Much More!
I hope you can make your way over to Dawes Park July 19th and 20th anytime between 12 p.m. and 7 p.m. because this is one arts festival that you surely don’t want to miss out on! From Thai jewelry to Columbian and Mexican Folklore dance to Bosnian Cevapcici, the 23rd Annual Ethnic Arts Festival will provide you with a one-of-a-kind experience.
