This post documents my experience on August 9, 2026.
At BAYarts in Bay Village…
…festival lovers came together…
…with their furry companions…
…to celebrate a special festival called Bark in the Park…
…where vendors, organizations and service providers could come together…
…with offerings for those who really mattered.
Festival goers (and friends) could inform themselves about dog rescues…
…boarding…
…grooming options and health…
…while also considering things like photography services…
…artistic portraits…
…accessorizing possibilities…
…and all sorts of healthy snacks.
For humans, there were dog-centric greeting cards and dog-aiding coffee…
…arts and crafts for the kids…
…balloon animals (also for the kids)…
…local honey, sweet treats…
…and a Bark Art Gallery…
…walled with canine masterpieces.
There was also a food truck where festivals could grab some lunch…
…and follow signs to the back…
…where they could eat in the shade…
…while enjoying live music.
