Testimonials
"Loved being a part of the RAW event! It was well advertised with lots of traffic (even on the rainy Sunday) and everything was well organized and easy to maneuver with load in/load out."
"We had a lot of fun at RAW and we found some unique items to buy! So much talent in the world!!! The committee always does such an excellent job putting this event together!" (patron: Lenore L)
The Riverside Arts Weekend continues to grow after its return last year after a 3 year interlude and has added opportunities for artists to demonstrate and showcase their art. RAW also is expanding our event promotion across 10+ adjacent communities.
