8th annual Art on the Parish Green

From 8th annual Art on the Parish Green Website:

Art on the Parish Green combines the finest in local entertainment, food, and artisan craftsmanship, putting them all together to showcase our flourishing downtown area and to help provide community support for the needy in this near-downtown New Albany neighborhood.

The goals for Art on the Parish Green are three-fold. First, it provides a venue for local and regional artists and craftspeople to reach new audiences and grow as professionals in their fields of endeavor. This includes top high school students who display their work in a special booth at the festival.

Second, it highlights downtown New Albany and all of the exciting activity and growth there! St. Pauls is a downtown church, with no intention of moving to the suburbs. We want our neighborhood to thrive and our downtown to flourish.

Finally, the art festival supports community outreach ministries at St. Pauls. All 2014 festival proceeds will be given to Shepherds Kitchen, a community ministry that provides hot meals to between 75-95 individuals every single Friday night in St. Pauls Carriage House community room.
