Sunnyside Artists was founded in 2007, and is made up of over 200 visual artists from the Woodside and Sunnyside area, along with 400 art supporters. The first event for the collaborative was a fine art fair show, which celebrated its tenth year over the summer. A crafts show is an add-on requested by the community.
The full lineup of artisans at the Sunday event are listed on the event flyer.
