Formerly known as Art in the Park, The New Art Festival is Ottawa's largest non-profit, non-commercial outdoor art exhibition. To honour our art community and all its hard-working artists and craftspeople, the festival is now fully juried. The event will remain in the Glebe district's beautiful Central Park and will continue to offer free admission and feature local organic food providers in a family-friendly environment. The New Art Festival is a place where you can see original art and meet the artists.

Originally conceived by Bhat Boy in 1993 as an event to provide opportunities for up and coming artists, this annual event now draws thousands of visitors and participants from across Canada and around the world. The New Art Festival will continue to offer a unique experience for artists and art lovers alike. The Art in the Park Festival Community is a registered Ontario not-for-profit corporation run for artists by artists.

We thank the following sponsors for reinforcing the mandate of the festival by encouraging originality, integrity and distinction in the visual arts by sponsoring the awards presented at the 2010 festival.
