The Cochecho Arts Festival Committee plans and implements the Tuesday Children's series and the
Friday Evening Concert Series, both taking place at the Rotary Arts Pavilion in Henry Law Park. The Festival
Committee begins meeting in January to select the entertainment for the summer. Volunteer opportunities are
available during the planning stages and at the various events throughout the summer. If you have a day or two
a month to help plan the festival or are available for several hours on Tuesday morning or on Friday evenings,
contact the Chamber at info@dovernh.org to volunteer for the committee.
The Cochecho Arts Festival provides summer long entertainment at no charge to attendees and is supported
by a grant from the City of Dover, individual and corporate sponsorships, and onsite donations. Sponsorship
opportunities start at $125.00 and increase to $3,000.00. For information about the details of the various
sponsorship levels contact the Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce at 603-742-2218,
email info@dovernh.org.

We invite you to come showcase your work by reserving space at the
festival. Being a Cochecho Arts Festival Artist is an effective way for you
to attract new customers in a fun, festive and community-oriented
environment. The Festival drew over 25,000 attendees to Dover during
the 2008 season.
This year we are excited to present the opportunity to artists to display
and sell their work. Space is available on a first come, first served basis
along the sidewalk on Washington Street.
