We went crazy with advertising! In 2011 we had 6 large banners in the Chastain Park area. A full billboard was up at the main entry to Chastain Park at W. Wieuca Rd. and Roswell Rd for over a month (This site gets 300,000 views per day!)
We also had 6 bus stop shelter "mini billboards" in the area! They promote each individual artist on the billboard!

Congratulations to these fine artists who have been selected by the judges as the best execution of their chosen medium for this show. Along with the award ribbon displayed for the duration of the festival, a special gift will be made to each artist.
In 2010 we introduced the first I-PHONE APP for an art festival!!!
This app is a free download to IPhones and Droids and can be used to track festival updates, share with friends, and even use to get discounts on art supplies. The secure link to download the app is now available. Click HERE from your IPhone or Droid and it will automatically be placed on your home screen. You should use Apple Safari, Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox as a browser. Can you look at the APP on your home computer? Sure! Just click
the link and you will be able to see how it works. (Note: Microsoft Explorer and certain other browsers are not compatible.)
In 2009, we made the cover of the Atlanta Intown Paper!
(Not to brag, but this is the first time in their
print history to give the cover to an Arts Festival!)
We're working closely with this group.
They strongly support the Festival and local artists.
Read their great paper online at: http://www.atlantaintownpaper.com
In the October, 2010 issue we made the cover again!
We also had a terrific video produced by Explore404.com.
