Where does my gate donation go?
Save Our Street Festivals!
Street Festivals are ubiquitous to a Chicago Summer. Most of our Street Festivals, including the Wells Street Art Festival, are NOT CITY FUNDED. Local non-profit organizations – i.e. Old Town Merchants & Residents Association – pay for and produce street festivals and depend on your donation at the gate to make these festivals possible.
Old Town Merchants & Residents Association is part of the Save our Street Festival Coalition.
Join us for the 50th Anniversary of the Wells Street Art Festival on June 14 & 15! Please chip in with a gate donation, enjoy the festivities, and help ensure another 50 years!
