Arts Festival on Pier 36 - Call for Artists
Community Board 3 is now soliciting applications for artists and art
groups to exhibit or perform on Pier 36 at Montgomery Street. The pier
is 16 feet wide and approximately 1/5th mile long, with a view of the
Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges, the Statue of Liberty and three of the
Waterfalls.
We are looking for technically simple, FREE events to contribute to
this diverse and exciting downtown community.
The pier will be available for programming from July 12th – September
28th, 3-8pm.
It is a great opportunity for artists to show work in a very unique
site-specific location for free.
All scheduling is contingent upon approval by Community Board.
Please contact Eliza Laytner for an application at:

provided, but publicity and press will be taken care of.
