Winter Park Sidewalk Art Festival 2007
If you are visiting Orlando, Florida in March for Spring break, and you are going to be here during the weekend of the 16, 17 or 18th March - be sure to take the time to drive over to Winter Park for the annual Winter Park Sidewalk Art Festival.

This annual event is must see for any family staying in a vacation home in Orlando from villadirect.com - and has something for everyone. The show is one of Florida's longest established, and has literally hundreds of exhibits of art and crafts for sale. There are games, concerts, and things for everyone to enjoy all day long. Set in the Park alongside the main street (which is called Park Street in Winter Park!) - be sure to bring along comfortable footwear, as you will be sure to want to see all of the exhibits and stalls - and it's quite a walk in the Spring-time warmth.

		Over 1,000 artists applied to exhibit in this year's show, and the board of the WPSAF selected 225 international artists to attend. Artists compete to win one of the 62 awards (valued at over $65,000 this year). The WPSAF purchases the winner of the "Best of Show" award and displays the art in a permanent display in the Winter Park public library, along with past winners from previous years entries. The show is open on Friday 16th March and Saturday 17th March from 9:00am through till 6:00pm, and on Sunday 18th March 2007 from 9:00am through 5:00pm. As well as the art show and festival, every day sees live entertainment presented on the stage located in north Central Park. The entertainment includes live radio broadcasts, performance artists and many bands.
