Jennifer Neuguth and David Riordan are the creators of Festival Fete, a New England based art festival production company.

Festival Fete was born out of Neuguth’s and Riordan’s twenty year history and  involvement with the New England arts scene.  In addition to their retail business, OOP, their experience includes the organization and promotion of the Thayer Street and DownCity Art Festivals.  “We are very excited to create unique events that feature the incredible talents of New England artists,” said Riordan. “We have worked with many of these artists over the years selling their work at OOP, and now we’re thrilled to produce festivals designed to further highlight their talents and introduce them to an even broader audience.”

Every Festival Fete production will feature 100 juried artists, a farmer’s market, children’s activities and crafts, strolling entertainment, and live music.  In addition, there will be a community art project for everyone to participate.  “We believe there is an artist in everybody, so we’re creating an opportunities for festival attendees to express themselves and experience the thrill of creativity,” said Neuguth. 

Festival Fete proudly prestented The Garden City Center Art Festival on June 11, 2011, which was a huge success.  Currently we are working with the City of Providence and the town of East Greenwich on upcoming festivals.  The City Art Festival will be Saturday, August 6th and East Greenwich is scheduled for Saturday, September 3rd.
