Title:POSTPONED to Oct 10: 20th Annual Art On The Avenue
Date & Time:Sat Oct 3, 2015
Location:Mt. Vernon Avenue (Map This)
Mt. Vernon Avenue
Event Details:Due to the forecast of severe weather this weekend, including flooding rains and strong winds, it is with great disappointment we announce that Saturday’s 20th Annual Art on the Avenue is being postponed until October 10. This is the first time in the history the event has had to be postponed. Organizers participated this morning in a conference call with City officials and the difficult decision was based on the State of Emergency declared by the Governor and the City of Alexandria recommendation. Chairperson Pat Miller stated “Nothing is more important than the safety of our vendors, our volunteers and our faithful attendees. Due to the strong potential of flooding in both the fields and streets, electrical concerns, winds picking up tents, and the need for our law enforcement to be taking care of weather emergencies, we feel this was the only responsible decision.” The organizers are sorry for any inconvenience this causes and hopes everyone is able to still come out on October 10, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and celebrate Art on the Avenue’s 20th Anniversary.
