The Bucktown Arts Fest is very excited to be celebrating its landmark 25th anniversary on Saturday and Sunday, August 28th and 29th. Please consider advertising in this year’s program. We count on your support to help make the Fest a success!

About Our Program
Our 2010 program format will guarantee your advertisement great visibility to your target market. The program is printed in tabloid format – 16 inches high x 10.5 inches wide. Please download the form for ad sizes and pricing.

We have a projected printing of 20,000 programs with citywide distribution, including drops to businesses in Bucktown, Wicker Park and Lincoln Park, as well as wide distribution of the day of the Fest. Typically, the Fest attracts around more than 40,000 people annually. With close to 200 artists, new vendors and the continued success of our film program, we expect to surpass that number this year.

About the Bucktown Arts Fest
The Bucktown Arts Fest is a non-profit, all volunteer-run, neighborhood celebration of the arts— with no corporate sponsorship. Admission is free. All proceeds from the Fest go to develop and support arts and community programming for the Bucktown/Wicker Park neighborhoods.

Art, in all its forms, has been the sole focus of the Bucktown Arts Fest since its inception. One of Chicago’s premier gatherings of painters, sculptors, photographers and craftspeople (not to mention musicians, actors, poets and dancers), the Bucktown Arts Fest offers a chance for visitors to wander our streets and parks, visit our shops and restaurants and meet some of the people who make Bucktown the singular place it is.

Tax Deductible
All ads placed in the Bucktown Arts Fest Program are tax deductible due to our not-for-profit, 501(c)3 status. Once your balance is paid in full, advertisers will receive a confirmation letter for your files.
