Artists’ Reception

On Saturday evening of each Stockley Gardens Arts Festival, we host an artists’ reception with live music on the main stage. The party takes place immediately after the show ends for the day (6:00 - 8:00 p.m. in the spring, 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. in the fall). This reception is free and open to the public. We encourage the festival artists to attend, along with sponsors, volunteers, and the community at large. Midway through the reception, the Festival judge announces the award winners and distributes prizes.

In addition to live music provided by talented musicians, food vendors remain open for the reception, and beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages are available. This rockin’ outdoor party provides a great chance to have fun and mingle with both patrons and artists.
