Bob and I want to give everyone a "heads up" about a new, exciting gated art show that will be coming to the banks of the" Flats "area in Cleveland, Ohio- as part of the Riverside Entertainment District! The show is named the Flats Festival of the Arts and the dates are Aug 19-21, 2016. The show will have well know director Scott Huntley (Columbus Fine Arts Festival) and will be backed by a National real estate developer and a major Regional advertising agency. The show will be listed on Zapp next week. See you there!

Thanks,Connie:)))))
Patti and Linda, Britt Hallowell wrote a lengthy review of the show afterwards. You can find it and much more information at this link: http://www.artfairinsiders.com/profiles/blogs/flats-festival-of-the...
Hi Linda- We had a great show but some did not- now that the dust has cleared and some improvements have been made, we hear that Howard Alan Events will be taking over the helm of this ship for next summer...no gate, no evening hours, nor music or food vendors. I say you should apply ...www.artfestival.com
How did the Flats show go?? I heard from an artist at Winterfair that he had a great show, any other info?????
The application is now on Zapp- deadline 4/1.
Thanks for sharing this Patti! Scott mentioned the idea of a downtown Cleveland art show when we were at the Columbus open jury last year and we are so excited to hear it is happening. For those who have not been to downtown CLE and the flats area... it is really booming now.
Thanks for the heads up, Patti. That is a pretty good date ... a fair number of years ago Harvey Feinberg and George Kozman from the Cain Park Art Festival tried doing a show there also. Jon Witz, from Arts, Beats & Eats in Royal Oak also dealt with the people there trying to get a show going. Maybe the third time is a charm!
