The City of West Chicago is now accepting applications for vendors for its annual downtown garden festival, Blooming Fest, scheduled on Saturday, May 16, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Organized by city staff and community volunteers, the event combines the West Chicago Garden Club's annual plant sale with a craft and fine art show, car exhibit, children's activities, music, food and more.

The current focus is on attracting artists and crafters with a garden-related emphasis, and food vendors.

Booth space is available at a minimal cost, with no charge for nonprofit organizations and downtown tax increment financing district business vendors.

Applications for vendor space are available online at https://westchicago.org/city-events/west-chicago-blooming-fest/.

The deadline for vendor applications is Friday, April 17.

Space is limited.
