Visitors last year gobbled up the wristbands allowing them to return Sunday for free. Some were bummed they had to wear the band overnight, but we know you understand that we do have to make them tight enough so they can’t be slipped off and given to visitors who haven’t paid for a ticket. For that reason, we also can’t accept any visitors on Sunday whose bands have been cut and re-taped.
Drawing for a Free Class
Fair goers who purchase tickets in advance can write their name, email address and phone number on the back of their ticket. When they turn in their ticket at the gate, they will automatically be entered in a drawing for $250 good toward an art class or workshop at the Art Center. Chances of winning are approximately 1 in 5,000.
