Exhibitor Tables
 
Exhibiting at Streets Alive! is FREE. As an exhibitor in this year's event, your will have a one-on-one outreach opportunity to provide information about your organization and its mission and the resources you offer. We encourage interactive exhibits that engage participants to learn and have fun! 


Fitness Demonstrations, Classes
The mission of Streets Alive! aims to promote physical activity for all!  We will have several fitness sites.
 
If your organization has a fitness discipline and you are interested in teaching a class, we invite you to sign-up for a time slot at one of the two fitness sites.  To maintain your organization's information table during your class time, let us know if you will need a volunteer to staff it during your activity.  


Food Vendors
Farmer's markets and healthy food vendors are welcome in our food court.  The food court will be highly visible in a new location this year on the new City Impact campus, close to Peter Pan Park, facing 33rd Street.


*Fitness stage or food vendor interest can be indicated within the online exhibitor application."
  
Entertainment Sites
Sing, dance, do magic tricks, make balloon animals, do puppet shows - a variety of entertainers are encouraged to participate! Garage bands or any wholesome entertainment is welcome.  There are three designated entertainment sites. Come energize the crowd as they make their way along the route.    


Info Booths
 There will be 5 information booths around the route.  These will be "hub" sites with information to aid exhibitors, entertainers, volunteers, and attendees.   Look for the canopies at these locations for assistance throughout the event.
