All-Island Art Show

An open-air walking event / Not at all pedestrian / Organically home grown / Authentic to its core

An open-air walking event

Not at all pedestrian

Organically home grown

Authentic to its core

Art by and for the people

No pretense of anything more

Best described as eclectic

Cave drawings come to mind

Not for style or technique

But a sign of the times

Like mirrors on the wall

Reflections of us all

Richly diverse in Island lore

A kind of barometer

Of who we are

Art has a way of showing

What we value

Need look no further

Than the walls we adorn

Or, go no farther

Than Oak Bluffs tabernacle

For the people’s display

Annually in August

On first Monday.
