***Nampa Parks and Recreation Statement on Air Quality for Nampa Festival of the Arts***

Nampa Parks and Recreation is closely monitoring the air quality in the City of Nampa caused by smoke from surrounding wildfires. Despite current conditions, we plan to proceed with the Nampa Festival of the Arts this weekend (August 10 & 11). While contemplating on whether to attend the event, vendors and patrons are encouraged to consider their individual comfort level and health as it relates to the air quality.

Today the Parks and Recreation Department offers this event for approximately 200 artisans that draw in more than 18,000 community members to enjoy this weekend event. With the great variety of art, you are sure to find a treasure, whether it is jewelry, painting, sculpture, whimsical yard art, or something else. Live entertainment, food concessions, and free activities for children, including a kid’s art booth, will keep the whole family entertained.
