The City of Richmond Hill’s Cultural Services Team is excited to share two opportunities for artists to participate in the City’s 2024 Canada Day celebrations!
Richmond Hill’s Festivals and Events are a great way to showcase your offerings and connect to the community.
Artists are invited to apply to be Art Vendors or Art Facilitators on Monday, July 1st, 2024 at Richmond Green Park.

Arts Vendors: Individual or organizations that occupy a booth with the sole intention of displaying and selling works of art/craft that have been personally handmade or designed by the artist or organization.
