With the final weekends of July fast approaching, the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance is rearing to share the 2023 edition of their highly anticipated Riverfest before the month is through. The vibrant street festival will take place on July 23rd from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM on Main Street of Narrowsburg, NY in order to celebrate ecology, art, summer, and most of all – music.
Riverfest will kick off right at 10:00 AM with an ultimate crowd favorite – River Dogs On Parade, giving pet owners the chance to showcase mans best friend to a panel of judges and an adoring audience. An hour following the take over by the furry creatures, the Kids’ Tent will be available to people of all ages, allowing children with active minds and creative souls to be guided by Narrowsburg’s own teaching artist, Catherine Chesters, in creating colorful Riverfest Art Posters.
For those in search of the promised musical acts, live performances will also begin at 11:00 AM on the Riverfest Main Stage. Madárka will start off the morning taking listeners on a journey of worldly music as the band works to blend traditional Eastern European styles through centuries and borders. Later in the afternoon, beginning at 2:00 PM, Hollywood Herb & 7he 7eam will take the stage calling on countless icons from The Beatles to Lil Wayne. The genre bending rock, rap, and pop band offers a unique blend that bridges genres and is sure to please music lovers of all ages.
The live music will be temporarily interrupted around 1:00 PM by the anxiously awaited Riverfest Poster Auction that will take over the main stage and feature nearly fifty one-of-a-kind posters created by local artists. In addition to live music, K9’s of all shapes and sizes, posters, and delicious food truck vendors, the festival will feature an all day long Makers Market in which over forty Artisan Market Booths will display a wide range of handcrafted goods including jewelry, clothing, paintings, and more.
From morning until night, there will be something for all ages to enjoy at this years’ Riverfest!
