The Minnekhada Park Association is currently seeking artists to participate in a two day art festival and exhibition in scenic Minnekhada Regional Park in Coquitlam, British Columbia. This summer event offers visual arts, live music, roving performers, arts and crafts workshops, a childrens area, the Creative Cafe, and provides an opportunity for artists of different origins and disciplines to meet and share their passion.

The Festival provides a high quality event for artists to network with the public, their colleagues, and friends. Art sales are a welcome by-product of this exhibition, but not the sole purpose. There is a space for each artist in the historic Minnekhada lodge or outside in the driveway surrounded by the garden.

There is a minimal exhibitor fee ($30) flat fee includes both days at this event, coffee, and a light breakfast each morning. If needed 6 ft tables ($8) and chairs ($2) are available. No percentage of the artists sales is retained by the organizers.

Please note that this year, there will be credit card payment processing stations on site.
