The Arts Café is a series of house tours featuring neighborhood residents with a variety of artistic, musical, and culinary talents. The tours take place in beautiful houses that have been, or are in the process of being, rehabilitated by the NNN. This year the Café will be located on California Avenue, between Portage Avenue and Sherman Avenue, showcasing NNN’s continued progress. The Arts Cafe attracts a broad range of local talent - from bakers to artists, musicians, and craftspeople – as well as a number of area residents; there were over 1,000 in attendance during the 2008 event.
The Arts Cafe will take place on Sunday, November 1st from 10am to 5pm, and the NNN would be thrilled if you would like to participate!
If you are an artist or will be selling culinary treats, the NNN asks only for a $10 donation to participate. This donation helps to cover the cost of printing and advertising the event, and also contributes to hospitality expenses. All profits made from sales will go to you: the artists, bakers, and craftspeople. There is no fee for the participating musicians.
If you are interested in participating please complete and return the Participant Interest Form with your donation no later than Friday, September 25, 2009. Once registration has ended, you will be contacted with your placement and other final details. If you have any questions prior to that time please feel free to contact Marilyn at 574.232.9182.
