Entertainment in the Village & Chalk Art Oasis

What is Entertainment in The Village at the Chain of Parks Art Festival?

This is the perfect spot for kid-friendly solo acts and less-music-focused entertainers like storybook tellers, educational demonstrations, performance artists, etc. This is in a grassy area with a 10x10 white tent, chair, amp, and mic (no stage or sound engineer).
Audiences fluctuate and frequently require a performer to call to attendees to gather 'round. The core audience is small children and their parents. Interactive props are helpful!
The Village is an area within the Festival that provides opportunities for community connections to an estimated 35-40,000+ enthusiastic visitors! The purpose of this area is to promote organizations that support the arts in our community. The Village incorporates Community Partners, Pop-Up Studios, Sponsor Booths, and the historical Jacques Le Moyne Encampment, with fun foods, ENTERTAINMENT, and more!
Our Main Stage is located in the Center Court on Calhoun St. and features a variety of local bands, aspiring singer/songwriters, dance troupes, and other crowd-pleasing local performing arts groups (see separate application if that applies to you).

What is Entertainment in The Chalk Artist Oasis?

This is brand new to the festival! We are going to be creating a nature-themed oasis surrounding our professional chalk artists with plants and shade for visitors to observe their progress in a beautiful space. We're looking for solo/ duo performers to set the mood and make this a welcoming area. Performers in this area should be self-sufficient, upbeat, and welcoming.
We will provide shade, 2 chairs, and 1 table. The performer will need to bring their own sound equipment.
Performers may sell their merch, put out tasteful signage, and hand out business cards/ flyers, but we do not allow tip jars.
