The Brockport Arts Festival Organizers, comprised of representatives from BISCO (Brockport Integrated Service Clubs Organization) and Village of Brockport, are happy to report the outcome of the community impact statement of the 2024 Brockport Arts Festival, along with heartfelt gratitude to event sponsors, participants, and attendees.
The proceeds generated by festival operations are dedicated to the improvement and enhancement of Village parks and playgrounds. Monetary sponsorships for 2024 totaled $8,700. These are thanks to the generosity of Spurr Chevy/GMC of Brockport, Nortera Foods, Oaks Inc., Canandaigua National Bank, Assured Partners, Long Construction, Renewal By Anderson, and Patricia Baker. Many in-kind donations of products, services, and time are donated and help offset expenses of the festival.
Contributing to this effort are: Runnings; Morgan Manning House; Westside News; Casella Disposal; Ready, Set, Grow!; Brockport Central School District; SUNY Brockport; Our Village Optician; George Sokolsky and Sweden Plaza; Girl Scouts of Western New York LakeRidge Service Unit; Troop 111 and Pack 86 of Boy/Cub Scouts; Brockport Band Boosters; Chris Marks Electric; Subway; Aldi; and St. Luke’s Episcopal Church.
The total of festival proceeds generated by the 2024 Brockport Arts Festival, raised through financial sponsorships and booth fees, dedicated to Village Parks is $30,635.37.
Many other fundraising efforts take place during the Arts Festival by the non-profit and community based organizations on site. This year, the reported totals given to the Brockport Fire Department (for Make-A-Wish), Brockport First Baptist Church, Girl Scouts of Western New York LakeRidge Service Unit, PAWS Animal Shelter, Kiwanis Club, Lions Club, and the Re/Max Titanium and BISCO Duck Derby totaled $20,983.50.
This brings the grand total for the 2024 Brockport Arts Festival community impact to $51,618.87.
The festival organizers warmly thank all who participated in any way to the success of this year’s festival and look forward to the 2025 Brockport Arts Festival held next year on August 9 and 10.
