Art in the Park – August 5th and 6th

NORTH CONWAY NH -The 51st Annual Art in the Park returns to the south end of Schouler Park in North Conway Village, at the North Conway Community Center on Friday and Saturday, August 5th and 6th. The show runs from 10am to 5 pm on Saturday and 10am to 4 pm on Sunday.This two day art show is the signature event of the Mt. Washington Valley Arts Association (MWVAA). Fine artists and craftspeople from all over New England participate in this annual event.

The art show traditionally attracts visitors for the weekend who come to admire the talent of these artists and buy a treasure of their own. Approximately 50 regional artists will be represented in all media of painting, photography, sculpture and mixed media.

New this year will be options for setting up inside the air conditioned community center or setting up outside under the artist’s own pop up tents. Kristen Corrigan will again be our DJ for the weekend. As we had last year, there will be a separate area for the artworks to be judged. Judges will award ribbons and cash prizes in 2D, 3D, Photography/ Mixed media, and Best of Show.
