ARTISTS’ TENT TOUR

Given the recent vaccination rate and City of Toronto guidelines, we are hopeful that artists will be able to host their own studio sales during the tent tour.  We are following provincial and City of Toronto guidelines closely and as we know more, we will keep you posted. See Artists’ Network Announcement – Important News About Riverdale ArtWalks

About the Tent Tour
It’s always great when people can experience your art in-person. Artists will be hosting their own “booths” showcasing their work outdoors at studio, home or small group locations and responsible for maintaining any Covid safety protocols and restrictions. Weather permitting.

Saturday & Sunday, June 19 & 20, 2021 – 11 AM – 5 PM
SIGN UP TO BE LISTED ON OUR MAP!
–  Deadline 11:00 PM, Friday June 4, 2021

We encourage you to host your own in person opening – consider putting your tent in your driveway and encourage your network to view your work practicing safe social distancing.

Promoted and posted at the Riverdale ArtWalk ONLINE Show & Sale, RiverdaleArtWalk.ca and on our social channels.
