PARMA PROUD - PARMA EVENT
Parma's Famous Picnic in the Park is back!
Tha't right: One of Parma's flagship events will be returning for it's 3rd time on Saturday, August 6th, 2022. This year, the event will taked place from 11 am - 2 pm at James Day Park, (Nike) located at 1182 W. Pleasent Valley Road.
If you're unfamiluar with this celebration that has previously been held at Ridgewood Lake Park, this summer soiree features live music (from the band Tequila Wagon), food trucks, pleanty of games and activities for children, and tents from local non-profit organizations (like Stearns Farm and Parma Area Fine Arts Council, The Ridgewood Garden Club, among others). This year, we're expanding our vision with the goal of using this affair as a springboard to launch something the city has been coverting for years: An art fest.
With that in mind, we are not only inviting non-profits but craft vendors (handmade/handcrafted only) and other artists to participate in this event -- FOR FREE. You may sell your products and keep all your revenues, but you must bring your own tent, table(s), and chairs. (You also won't have access to electricity, and food vendors will have to have food licenses).
If you would like to engage in this endeaver, please let us know ASAP, so we can continue the planning process because SPACE IS LIMITED and will granted on a first come first serve basis. You can email our general account (parmaproud1@gmail.com) or email/call Kathy Mabin with specific art related questions (kathrynmabin@att.net) or call 440-590-0935.
We would love to partner with you in this endeaver!
Sincerely, We Are Parma Proud Board of Directors
