2011 CAF Festival Update

July 28, 2011 By CAF Leave a Comment

The 2011 Cambridge Arts Festival Planning Committee would like to thank all of our sponsors, vendors, and artists who were involved in this year’s event.

As those who were there know, severe weather conditions as well as concern for the safety of participants and visitors,  led to the cancellation of CAF as well as all other outdoor festivals in the area.  We are truly grateful for the understanding and support from our artists, vendors, and sponsors as we made this difficult decision.

While a potential rain date had been discussed, financial and time constraints have proved to be a challenge and the committee has decided instead to focus on making our 2012 festival better than ever!

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions regarding the cancellation or the 2012 festival.
