Tremont Arts & Cultural Festival

It was lovely. Took the kids, they had a blast with all the kid friendly activities like chalking! The artists were friendly and had great works! Plus, all of the delicious food we ate! We will certainly be back next year!

For as much of shows as we go to, we've seen a lot of different vendors and many duplicates as well. We have never been to this Tremont art show before so seeing it was going to be an art show with 110 vendors was a good sign in our eyes. We go and started off well buying at the first vendor we saw. But then continuing on, it was more so community advocate groups. We don't want to be hit up with people asking us to sign a petition or donate money when we do enough of that as it is. I do not want to go to an art show to enjoy what people make and be put off by there being missing vendors, or vendors with one table with minimal pieces. For example, the photographer there didn't even have a portfolio, I forget what was on her table but there wasn't much there to sell her business. Didn't try any food so can't say anything about that. But it isn't a terrible spot to just walk around for an hour. Parking was free under the bridge and they have surveillance cameras. We went to one close to the Cleveland sign but there is also a second one off abbey road. It's a short walk to Lincoln park. Dogs are welcome, as we saw many people with them. It seemed like there was some events that didn't apply to us but maybe moreso for kids/ families such as the ballet performance and magic show. Enjoy the show though to whoever goes!

The event is well run and everyone is so kind and friendly. It’s just a great feeling while you are there. So much to do, great food, talented artisans, unique entertainment and the park is spacious and easily walkable.

Had a great time!

Don't go unless you have money to freely spend. Very fun
