27th Annual Riverfest
Sunday, July 23, 2017
10 am – 4 pm
Celebrate the beauty of the Delaware River and the artistic bounty of our community at Narrowsburg’s 27th annual Riverfest, a free event presented by Delaware Valley Arts Alliance and sponsored by the Catskill Regional Medical Center.
This annual gathering is the flagship event for the hamlet of Narrowsburg as well as the Upper Delaware River region, attracting far-flung visitors with a full day of art and activities surrounded by breathtaking scenery. More than 50 vendors populate Main Street from end to end, selling hand-made goods including jewelry, pottery, paintings, textiles, books, candles, and more.
The centerpiece of the day is the 12:30 pm Riverfest poster auction, which has become an unmissable tradition and community favorite. Over five dozen original posters created by local artists in every conceivable medium donate their work to be sold, live, to the highest bidder by auctioneer Tony Staffieri.
Enjoy live music at the Main Stage, provided by Peter Florance in the morning and Little Sparrow in the afternoon.
Frontier Communications provides free Wi-Fi hot spots throughout Main Street. Visitors and vendors alike can join “FrontierCommunicationsFreeWiFi” network and enjoy Internet access throughout the day. Ample free parking can be found at the Fireman’s field/ball field on DeMauro Lane. A complimentary shuttle service from the parking area to the Tusten Theatre will be provided again this year, with assistance from First Student.
Riverfest is sponsored by Catskill Regional Medical Center, along with media partner WSUL/WVOS-FM. Admission is free. For more information call 845-252-7576.
