Thank you to everyone who attended and participated in the 10th Annual Oliver Street Art Festival, which took place on Saturday, August 2nd, from 11 AM–5 PM on Oliver Street between Robinson and Schenck Streets in North Tonawanda.

For the first time in a long time, we had perfect weather for the event!

This year's festival celebrated its 10th anniversary and featured 50+ artist vendors showcasing a variety of artwork, handcrafted items, and repurposed gifts—including paintings, drawings, weavings, plants, fiber arts, photography, macramé, jewelry, tie-dye, and more!

The Project 308 Gallery hosted the opening of a new show titled "Yielding Form," featuring artwork by three artists: Sara Baker Michalak, Audrey Kay Dowling, and Barbara Murak. This exhibition will be on view through October, with a special artist talk, date TBA.

Attendees created their own mini-posters to commemorate the event with the Book Arts.

We'd like to send a heartfelt thank you to:

- Our partners at the The Old Chapel Antique & Artisan Market for extending festival activities to Robinson Street with a "kids zone," live music, and more vendors.

- North Tonawanda Porchfest and all of the local musicians who performed at the festival throughout the day.

- Oliver Street Merchants Association for your years of support.

- NT Parks and Rec Dept. for setting up the stage.

- The NT Department of Public Works for providing barricades for the event.

- My neighbors on the block for handling the street closure with kindness and for supporting the festival over the years.

- Jack Sierk for taking photos.

- Thank you to the food and beverage vendors, which included: Greek and Mediterranean Food Truck, The Vegan Grocery Store, Little Black Heart Coffee, Brando's Pizza, Wings & Subs - North Tonawanda, New York and Flying Bison Brewing Company.

And a special thank you to Anne Brady, Kelly Cline, Jessica Brown, Judy Brown, and Paul Brown for volunteering their time and efforts to the festival.
