Hosting a display booth is a great way for commercial businesses, other organizations and nonprofit groups to participate. In addition, the committee invites artists/crafters to apply to the Slice of Shoreview Art in the Park. Our event is colorful and exciting, offering great food, music, entertainment, parade, talent show, church service and fireworks. There will also be a car and motorcycle show and other surprises.

Because of the popularity and success of the event, it is important to submit a completed application and payment. All vendors will be issued 2 parking permits for entrance into the park for drop off only - assistance will be provided by Slice Committee to assist in unloading.
