Statement from art experiences co.
Due to personal circumstances, I am announcing that the Art Experiences Co. is transferring the ownership and operation of Artfest Kingston to the local company Kingston Artist Events. Vanessa and Kate, the principals, are experienced show managers who run the Kingston Holiday Market and Kingston's Square Foot Show. I am confident that Artfest Kingston is in good hands.
I look back on Artfest Kingston 2024 with pride and with my relationships with each of artist and art lover you with great fondness. The last sixteen months have been challenging for me personally which is why my focus came away from festival running. I anticipate that the festival will be a great success for years to come given Kate's & Vanessa's energy and abilities.
Information about artist bookings will be announced in the next few days on instagram @kingstonartistevents and online at www.artfestkingston.ca & at www.kingstonartistevents.com.
Effective immediately, please forward all inquiries about Artfest Kingston to Kingston Artist Events directly at kingstonholidaymarket@gmail.com
Best Wishes,
Neil
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE
LAND acknowledgement
We are reminded that City Park, the location of Artfest Kingston, is situated on the ancestral and continuing unceded territory of the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples.
We acknowledge that this land is steeped in rich Indigenous history. We are grateful to be able to share this natural setting for our festival and we respect the connection of nature to art and one's well being as is exemplified within Indigenous cultures. We recognize our shared history and love of art and nature and we strive to create an honest, open, and inclusive experience for all.
