🌿As we celebrate "World Environmental Day", it seems only right that we thank Sustainable Tallahassee for partnering with us to keep the 2026 Chain of Parks Art Festival eco-friendly as we celebrate a decade of sustainability!

💚Through our long-standing partnership, this year's Festival continued to build on its “Going Green” initiative. Over the weekend, Sustainable Tallahassee helped select the “Recycled Content Award” for a piece of Festival artwork made of recycled materials, hosted an information booth on sustainable living, worked with Rags2Bags to provide free reusable tote bags in the Community Corner, and featured an Electric Car display on Tunnicliff Lane.

♻Additionally, through Sustainable Tallahassee’s underwriting, Compost Community helped reduce waste in our VIP and Behind-the-Scenes areas! We appreciate their continued collaboration as we work toward a more sustainable Festival each year.

A WWII veteran and distinguished UF professor, Williams focused on capturing the human condition. His legacy lives on in major museums and the Florida Artists Hall of Fame—and was recognized at the festival along his namesake lane.

Beyond their financial sponsorship, their team stepped up in huge ways logistically:

🌭 Fed our hard-working volunteers, artists, and city workers from the Scottie’s Dogs cart during the busy Friday setup.
💪 Hired a small crew to help our volunteers pack up on Sunday afternoon—providing an incredible boost right when everyone was exhausted after a long, hard weekend.

🍻 Cheers to our Linda Van Beck Lane sponsors, Tri-Eagle Sales & PROOF Brewing Company, for keeping everyone refreshed with their iconic local craft beer! At the Main Bar, PROOF's locally brewed craft beer was poured cold straight from the Tri-Eagle beer trailer by the fantastic team at McKibbon Hospitality. From crisp, refreshing hops to crowd-favorite hard seltzers, it was a celebratory team effort of our local community partners.

✨ The craft beer experience didn't stop there—PROOF also generously donated cans of their local brews to the VIP Experience Bar, giving our sponsors a true taste of Tallahassee's finest craft beer scene all weekend long.

🎨 Wondering about the lane's name? We named our primary walking lanes after iconic artists from the Permanent Collection. This lane was proudly dedicated to the memory of the late painter and longtime LeMoyne Arts advocate, Linda Van Beck, celebrating her incredible 50-year legacy in our arts community as guests strolled through the Festival.
