Art In the Park

The Mrs & I attend this event every year. We go early, have breakfast at the hotel & then browse through the vendors. It was nice & we did see some unique items, but it was just darn hot! And the prices are pretty steep too.

Art in the Park is a large outdoor art festivals in Boulder City that is annual every October. The event is free to the public. They have so many great vendors and food trucks. This was my 4th time coming. It's always a nice family day to come out and see all the great talent in our community and support the vendors. Great fall festival. Our family had a great time this year once again.

10-2-22 Spotting white tents on our way to breakfast in Boulder City we knew something fun was about to take place. I said loudly CRAFT FAIR!!!Doc looked it up and told us Art In The Park. We also saw a poster: 100 vendors - that confirmed it: if you can't see long horn sheep you might as well add some local culture while we are here.After breakfast at the Coffee Cup and still no sight of the herd, we found lot parking. Half an hour too early but I spotted someone making a sale.Let's do this! The plan was stay on the paved walkway through the park with benches nearby in case we needed to take a break.I bought handcrafted bracelets for Doc and myself. Doc bought hubs a stake with a metal dog hunching over. There is an unidentified dog walker who never picks up their business by our sidewalk.There were many tiny cute four legged family members visiting too. Okay let's hele on...that was a nice diversion.Many artists even from Arizona.Huge paintings, sculptures, woolen shawls and more. I need to get on their mailing list.

This place is so fun every year. We always like getting out of the city. The food trucks were great and the booths were equally great.

We went to Boulder City for the annual Art In The Park Craft Show, and it was amazing. As we approached the heart of the city, we spotted white tents in the distance. The craft show takes place in Government Park, and we took my Mom along since we knew she would enjoy it. With over 100 vendors, there was plenty to choose from in terms of shopping. We California olive oil, balsamic vinegars, and garden stakes for our herbs and tomatoes.It's a great place to shop for early holiday gifts and support artists! You can easily spend a couple of hours browsing around. If you've never been, I highly recommend going and exploring. It's a fun way to spend an afternoon.

This event takes place over a single weekend (Oct. 7-8, 2023) in October, running from 9 am to 4 pm. I was captivated by its expansive scale and the multitude of vendors it attracted. There was certainly an abundance of delightful crafts available for purchase. However, I couldn't help but wish for more live art experiences, such as vibrant paintings being created in real-time, captivating poetry readings, or even friendly competitions, to truly transform this event into a festival-like ambiance. Nevertheless, it still exudes a unique charm, even though it feels more akin to a sprawling flea market with some crafty stuff for sale rather than an immersive art festival. Among the talented artists present, the Laughing Bear Art exhibit stood out, featuring incredibly adorable paintings that bring a genuine smile to your face, created by a truly amiable artist. Additionally, I had the pleasure of purchasing some exquisite holiday earrings crafted by talented jewelry makers. There were also a ton of food and beverage options, including alcohol. Fun way to spend a few hours.

You can't miss going here! It is the perfect place to shop for early holiday gifts or birthday gifts and support artists! You can easily spend 2-4 hours looking around. Don't buy until you've gone through all the booths. It makes it easier to look around. Plus you might find something at the end and then you already spent your budget money! Park in the bus lot and take the bus! It is worth the money and so much easier than trying to find a parking space! Enjoy your day!

My fiancé loved it. Best experience she's had with outdoor shopping for art. Various types of art but the one of a kind items blew us away

I live in Boulder City. There wasn't parking for this event. The set up busses in the Veterans Park to bus people in for $20.00. That's disgusting, a mile or two away?The food was so expensive, I bought a hot dog and bottle water for $15.00 and I don't even know if it was meat. It was disgusting . Another vendor was selling BBQ spare ribs, 4 ribs ,$18.00. This is highway robbery! And the vendor an old man, was so rude to myself and my girlfriend. We should have just walked away, why if we are buying your products, do you have to be mean to us?We bought a lemonade, 1/2 ice for $8.00. We had to walk 10 blocks away.Why for next year, they get close parking? Paying $20.00 to go a few miles is unbelievable . A little cheaper prices on the food. Vendors who are nicer, I shouldn't get yelled at for asking for a fork. There weren't that many good food vendors. They did have wonderful vendors for non- food items. Very personable, and said even though they lived in California, we could call or go on thru website. Vendors with jewelry, the prices were great. Hopefully next year, it will be better.

The 2033 art show was big and offered a large variety. However things were very expensive!! And they charged $1.00 if you used a credit card. Extremely unreasonable!! This year there was more food stands and again VERY expensive for what you got. The Mexican food stand, Taqueria del sur was expensive and the food was barely mediocre at best!! Most went to the circular container. People are in business to make a living, but they don't need to try to make a killing!!
