The 41st Annual Art in the Park will be held April 30th, May 1 and 2, 2010. The three day event will take place on the grounds of the Montclair Art Museum. One of the Northeast’s premier events for arts and crafts, this year’s juried show features the work of 80 artisans presenting sculpture, glass and metal arts, ceramics, fiber arts, fine arts and jewelry for sale in all price points.
Here’s some information about the entertainment from last year’s show:
Live musical performances are ongoing throughout the weekend, including Montclair’s own Parents Who Rock. There will be food and refreshments, including a Whole Foods barbeque on Saturday, and a “make your own sundae” tent with Applegate Farms all weekend long. There will be arts and crafts activities for children, including doll making, beading, toobers and zots, tattoos and t-shirt decorating. There will also be a rock-climbing wall, ensuring that all family members will find this year’s event a memorable experience. For more details and directions, visit the Art in the Park website.
Since it began 41 years ago, thousands of artists and craft professionals have sold work at the annual Art in the Park. Because it is a juried show, only the finest quality work is presented, attracting arts and crafts collectors and enthusiasts from throughout the tri-State area. This year’s panel includes three esteemed jurors:
- Lucille Tenazas: Henry Wolf Professor, School of Art, Media and Technology, Parsons, The New School For Design, New York
- Lora Urbanelli: Director, Montclair Museum of Art
- Andrew Wagner: Editor in Chief, ReadyMade magazine
Art in the Park will be held for the third year at the Montclair Art Museum, creating a partnership between the area’s oldest regional art museum and a beloved community art event. To learn more about the Museum and the exhibition, visit http://www.montclairartmuseum.org
