Registration Now Required for Collingswood's Second Saturday Events

Artists looking to show off their work during Collingswood’s monthly Second Saturday event will now have to register, beginning with the Sept. 12 event.

Participating crafters must register before events each month and pay a $10 registration fee to be a part of the event.

“We’re using the registration system and revenue to help better organize artists and also to invest in promotion of Second Saturday,” Collingswood Community Development Director Cass Duffey said. “We’re hoping to get more artists and bring more attention to the 2nd Saturday as well.”

The Borough is seeking quality submissions from visual and fine arts as well as artisans, performers and musicians. Artists can register starting in mid-August. Interested artists must email Devon at collingswoodsecondsaturday@gmail.com to register for the event. Displays should be art or craft based, handmade works – no vendors or resale permitted. Full details regarding set up are at http://www.collingswood.com/arts/second-saturday. Event registration is online only and registration fees are collected via PayPal. Artists must be registered at least a week prior to the event.

There is no fee for musicians interested in performing on Second Saturday, but musicians must be scheduled with music chairman Sam Caruso. For details regarding performing at Second Saturday, email Sam at secondsatmusic@aol.com.

Second Saturday takes place every month (weather permitting) from 5 p.m. to 9pm. along Haddon Avenue in Collingswood.

Second Saturdays are free for guests.
