UPTOWN ART FAIR 2015 On behalf of the Uptown Association, welcome to the 52nd annual Uptown Art Fair! As the producer of the event since 1973, the Uptown Association is proud and honored to have you as one of our valued sponsors. The fair began in 1964 as a way to increase awareness of the arts while raising money for Uptown projects. Although the event has grown and changed over the years, its core mission remains the same. Each year, much of the proceeds from the fair are returned directly to the community to enhance numerous programs and activities. This internationally recognized fair offers diverse, lively activities and world-class artists. Don’t miss our exciting features this year, including the Kitchen Window Culinary Arts Competition presented by The Wedge Community Co-op, interactive family activities and demonstrations, day and evening musical performances, a world class youth art fair and a bigger and better Uptown Information Booth offering gift bags and exclusive Uptown merchandise. Aside from showcasing amazing art, the fair is a celebration of the hip, refreshingly unconventional Uptown community. Uptown is a crossroads that connects the energy of the city and the calm of the lakes. It’s a destination that combines shopping and dining with nature and lifestyle. Centered around Calhoun Square at Lake Street and Hennepin Avenue, Uptown blends the sophisticated, the scenic and the stylish into a decidedly urban environment—a perfect potpourri of places to go and people to see. We urge you to explore our community during your visit and experience this fabulous neighborhood for yourself! The Uptown Art Fair is a labor of love made possible by hundreds of volunteers, the generosity of sponsors, the kindness of local businesses, and those who support the arts. In our humble (and admittedly biased) opinion, it’s the best art fair around and we think our 385,000+ patrons agree – visitors have made the Uptown Art Fair the 2nd most attended event in the State of Minnesota (only second to the Minnesota State Fair). We hope you enjoy it! Sincerely, The Uptown Art Fair Steering Committee and Uptown Association Board of Directors

OVERVIEW The Uptown Art Fair, now celebrating its 52nd year, takes over the commercial district in Uptown Minneapolis. What began as a neighborhood art sale just down the block from what is now Calhoun Square has now developed into a nationally recognized event. Hosting 350 artists, the Uptown Art Fair caters to tourists, art enthusiasts, artists, and festival-goers from around the country, and is the major fundraiser for the Uptown Association.

HISTORY 52 years ago, a group of local businessmen and women in the Uptown Commercial Club tried to develop ways to increase traffic and draw more people to the core of Uptown. In the late 1950’s, the Uptown area had fallen on hard times so there was interest of area businesses and residents to regain the popularity of the past. One idea was an art fair and the Uptown Art Fair was born! The first Uptown Art Fair was held in 1964 and featured 146 artists selling their wares on folding tables on the sidewalk. It brought art into everyday life onto the streets of an urban neighborhood and brought increased attention to the business district in the Hennepin – Lake area. Throughout the 1960’s, Uptown continued to gain a reputation as an “artsy” neighborhood and the Art Fair added to that perception. In later years, the newly formed merchants association, the Uptown Association, took over the production of the event and new ideas emerged to make the event bigger and better. One key idea was to increase the quality of the show and attract new artists through the development of a jury system that required higher artist standards than before. Since then, the Uptown Art Fair has evolved into an internationally recognized 3-day fine arts festival and one of the top 10 fine arts festivals in the country. With 350 artists representing 34 states and 3 international countries, and over 385,000 art enthusiasts enjoying the show, the event is the largest art fair in the state of Minnesota and second only to the Minnesota State Fair in number of attendees.

ORGANIZATIONAL LEADERSHIP & STRUCTURE The Uptown Association, producer of the Uptown Art Fair, is a nonprofit business association with over 135 member businesses. Its mission is to improve the economic vitality and stability of Uptown through collaboration and partnerships. It also exists to celebrate and sustain Uptown’s unique spirit and sense of community. The Association welcomes diversity of all kinds and advocates the greater benefit of the entire Uptown community. The Uptown Association full-time staff are supported by a team of seasonal staff, a Board of Directors, a planning committee, and an expansive group of volunteers committed to making this festival the very best of its kind.

2015 COMMEMORATIVE ARTIST: Brian Delozier Each year, the Uptown Art Fair selects an artist to create a piece of art to commemorate the event. The work is transformed into a poster and incorporated into promotional materials and merchandise available to art fair attendees. The Uptown Art Fair Committee is pleased to announce Brian Delozier as our 2015 Commemorative Artist. Delozier, a Pennsylvania native now currently living in Little Falls, Minn., discovered his passion for art, specifically his form of pointillism, after a serious accident left him with limited mobility. In 2002, at the age of 16, Delozier’s life changed dramatically when he suffered an accident on a ski slope in Pennsylvania. He broke two vertebrae in his neck and suffered a spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed from the chest down. After months of therapy, he regained the ability to walk but never regained complete use of his hands. Five years after his accident, Delozier decided to pack up, leave Pennsylvania, and head to Hawaii. He had no real plan, and was only in search of a change. It was in Hawaii that Delozier discovered his love of drawing with dots, thanks to an artist who encouraged him just to try. “I told him I couldn’t because of my lack of mobility,” says Delozier. “After much persistence on his part, I finally agreed. Within an hour I had a colorful little area of dots formed, and I absolutely loved it. I had no interest in art before my accident, but suddenly I had found my passion.” Delozier’s passion bloomed and since then he has created hundreds of pieces using thousands of dots, ranging from landscapes, flowers, animals, to geometric patterns. “After my accident, I was depressed, looking for a purpose in life. I felt lost,” says Delozier. “After I discovered this form of art, I came alive. It saved my life.” Wings Over Uptown features more than 600,000 dots and took Delozier about 150 hours to complete.

The Uptown Art Fair staff reserves the right to expel, without refund, any exhibitor bringing a vehicle onto the streets during times that the Art Fair is open to the public. Public Parking The Uptown Art Fair sells a limited number of parking spots to the general public in the Sons of Norway lot located at near the intersection of Lake Street and Humboldt Avenue. Limited street parking and additional private lots are also available. RV Parking Given the Uptown Art Fair’s urban location, no RV parking is permitted on the event grounds. Lowry Grove Community (2501 Lowry Ave NE, Minneapolis; 612-781-3148) is 7 miles northeast of Uptown and is the closest RV parking rental site. Sam’s Club (3745 Louisiana Ave S, St. Louis Park; 9552-929-9158) is 5 miles southwest of the art fair grounds, and also offers limited parking. Truck Parking A limited amount of truck parking is available for Sponsors/Vendors on the Art Fair property. It is available on a first-come, first served basis. Every attempt will be made to allow Sponsors/Vendors to park in close proximity to their booth space. A fee will be assessed for each truck based on the length ($25 per foot per day). Trucks cannot be left running overnight. The truck fee needs to be paid prior to the start of the event to prevent forfeiture of parking space. If a company needs truck parking, the request should be placed via the “Sponsor/Vendor Amenities Form.

Annual Uptown Art Fair, August 7-9, 2015

In preparation for the Uptown Art Fair, beginning THURSDAY, AUGUST 6 at 9 AM there will be NO PARKING ON THE ENTIRE MALL so that artists can begin set up. Police officers hired by the Uptown Association will secure the Mall area and make sure that all activity ceases by 10 PM. As we realize this may be an inconvenience, arrangements have been made for Mall residents to park in local lots for no fee. A limited number of spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Mall residents may pick up parking permits at the Uptown Association office (1406 West Lake Street, Lower Level C) on MONDAY, JULY 27 or TUESDAY, JULY 28 from 4 PM-7 PM. These are the ONLY times permit distribution will occur unless arrangements are made prior to July 27 with Jill Osiecki (612-823-4581 or Jill@uptownminneapolis.com). In order to obtain a permit, you MUST provide the following at the time of pick up: ď&#x201A;ˇ Proof of residence (ID, utility bill, etc.) ď&#x201A;ˇ License Plate Number The lots listed below are available for resident parking on a first-come, first-served basis. Your parking permit is for your car only. Hang your permit from your rearview mirror; if not visible at all times, your vehicle will be towed. * YWCA Ramp: Available from 8 AM on Friday, August 7 through Sunday, August 9 at 10 PM. Show the front desk attendant your pass to receive an exiting token. Please put your pass back in your car before leaving the lot. *Sons of Norway EAST Parking Lot: Located at W.

Best wishes, Jill Osiecki Project Coordinator, Uptown Association

June 22, 2015 Dear Uptown Community Members, The Uptown Art Fair, to be held August 7 – 9, 2015, is rapidly approaching. We want to make the weekend positive and beneficial for all businesses, residents and friends of Uptown so we would like to take a moment to share important details about the event. The Uptown Art Fair began 52 years ago as a neighborhood art sale just down the block from what is now Calhoun Square. Its mission was, and continues to be, promoting and raising funds to better serve the community. Proceeds from the art fair have funded bike racks, vinyl wrapping of utility boxes, education programs, bicycles for the beat cops and donations to neighborhood organizations to name a few. 

The City of Minneapolis granted the Uptown Association an Amplified Sound Permit for the Performance Stage throughout the duration of the event. The performance stage occurs in the Salsa a la Salsa Parking lot (2841 Hennepin Ave.). Performances will take place on Friday, August 7 (3pm – 8pm); Saturday, August 8 (2pm – 8pm); and Sunday, August 9 (1pm – 5pm).



During the event set up and teardown, we ask for your patience and understanding. Although our event is the second most attended in the state, our staff is small and we rely on the kindness of more than 800 people – our volunteers – to make this event a success. This letter contains information on what streets and areas will be closed and when. We will do everything in our power to make sure that the event is neighbor-friendly.



The City of Minneapolis grants the Uptown Association all rights to the sidewalks during the Art Fair. Sidewalk cafes, A-frame/sandwich board signs, solicitation of marketing materials and the selling of beverages and products outdoors will be prohibited within the 6 block radius of Lake Street and Hennepin Avenue during the Art Fair primarily due to safety concerns. The City of Minneapolis will enforce this ordinance, with the exception of businesses with outside seating existing prior to development of the Block Event Permit.



In order to drive traffic to your businesses, the Uptown Association will promote you via area maps and coupon books (businesses had the opportunity to purchase ads in late 2014) at the Uptown Information Booth located at the top of The Mall.



Complimentary Metro Transit bus passes are available for Uptown businesses and their employees for August 8 & 9. Complete and return the enclosed form by July 17.



It takes a community to put on an event such as the Uptown Art Fair. We are looking for volunteers to do a variety of tasks. You can pick the job, the day and the time you want to work at www.uptownartfair.com/volunteer

We hope you have a chance to walk the streets and enjoy the festivities!

MEDIA DO'S AND DON'TS DO be polite in all of your dealings with the media; treat them with the same courtesy you extend to fairgoers. DO ask the reporter or photographer for his or her name, the name of the media organization they work for, and the nature of the inquiry. DO offer to locate the PR team or the fair spokesperson who can speak with the reporter or photographer. DO ask the reporter or photographer to wait for the PR team/fair spokesperson at headquarters or, if safety is an issue, escort the reporter or photographer to another pre-determined waiting area. If necessary, station a guard near an unsafe situation to prevent media (and attendees) from wandering into it. DO respond to the media by saying something similar to: "XXXX, who handles publicity at Uptown Association, would be happy to help you. I'll contact him/her for you if you would please give me your name, the news organization you're with, and what you need.

DON'T forcibly try to prevent the media from doing its job -- asking questions and taking pictures. Do not touch a photographer's camera or try to cover the camera lens. If a situation is extremely sensitive, escort the media outside the building and inform those present that Uptown Association policy does not allow media inside the area during crisis situations. Again, offer to locate the PR team/Association spokesperson, and, again, station a guard with the media to prevent representatives from wandering. DON'T volunteer information to media representatives or feel pressured to respond to questions. Always remember to refer media to the public relations team or an Uptown Association spokesperson.

FIRE In the event of a fire, immediately call 9-1-1. Give your name and the exact location of the fire (address of building or nearest building to fire, floor, room, etc). Evacuate the building or area by the nearest uninvolved exit. If the exit is disabled and cannot safely be used as an evacuation point, use the nearest uninvolved stairwell. Alert emergency personnel to this fact and the location. Notify fire or police department personnel of any injured people and their location. DO NOT USE ELEVATORS. Once outside or away from the involved area, move to a clear area that is at least 500 feet away from the affected building. DO NOT RETURN TO AN EVACUATED BUILDING or area unless authorized by fire or police personnel.

MEDICAL EMERGENCY If serious injury or illness occurs to any patron of the event, staff, volunteer, etc., immediately call 9-1-1.

Keep the victim still and comfortable until help arrives. Do not move the victim. In case of a minor injury or illness, contact the Command Post and medical personnel will respond to their location or advise you on a course of action. A first aid station, staffed by highly qualified medical professionals, will be located on the corner of Hennepin Avenue and Lake Street. In the event of a serious medical emergency, please call 9-1-1. Persons with serious or unusual medical problems should be encouraged to allow medical personnel to evaluate their condition. Stay with medical personnel and assist them with crowd control or any other needs they may require of you, until you are released by medical or security personnel. All media questions are to be referred to the Event Director.

Immediately take cover under tables, vehicles or other objects which will give protection against falling glass and debris.

After the initial effects of the explosion have subsided, notify the Command Post. Give your name and the location and nature of the emergency (propane, unknown source, car, etc.) Stay calm and give as detailed of a report as you can to the Command Post, the fire department will need all the information it can get to respond properly.

Evacuate the area by the nearest available exit. Alert the Command Post that the area is being evacuated.

Try to determine and accept the individual's point of view. Do not confront/detain the individual if violent/combative. If the person leaves, do not try to stop them. Follow at a safe distance and inform authorities so action can be taken. If not, then potentially the problem just moves elsewhere but still exists. Have someone meet security or medical personnel at the location and provide up to date information.

AIRBORNE RELEASE OF A HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE If there is the potential for an airborne release of a toxic or hazardous substance due to a transportation accident in or around the event area, or notification by police, fire department or county officials that an airborne release in the jurisdiction occurred, police or fire department officials will notify event staff. The vulnerability zone is an area over which the airborne concentration of a chemical involved in an accidental release could reach the Level of Concern. The Level of Concern is defined as the concentration of an Extremely Hazardous Substance in the air above which there may be serious irreversible health effects or death as a result of a single exposure for a relatively short period of time. The lead-time of an airborne release incident could be from 0-30 minutes. As a result, this short time may not allow for a safe evacuation. An evacuation under these conditions may expose the population to dangerous toxic chemicals; therefore, the recommendation is to take shelter. Preferred areas for protective sheltering would be interior hallways, rooms without windows or exterior doors, enclosed stairways and rooms on the side of the building away from where the hazard is approaching. Doors, windows and other potential air leaks should be sealed up to prevent toxic fumes from entering.

RECOMMENDED SHELTER INSTRUCTIONS: AIRBORNE RELEASE o o o o o o

Once notified by city or county officials, close all doors to the outside, and close and lock all windows. Turn off fume hoods, range hoods, air handlers and all air conditioners and switch inlets to the "closed" position. Seal any gaps around window type air conditioners. Seal off all vents, grills or other openings to the outside to the extent possible. If the gases start to bother you, hold a wet cloth or handkerchief over your nose and mouth. Minimize the use of elevators in buildings. These tend to "pump" outdoor air in and out of a building as they travel up and down. Tune to the Emergency Broadcast Station on your radio or television (personnel with radios stay in contact with Command Post) for further information and guidance. Do not evacuate your building unless told to do so by the police or fire department personnel
